Leitz Moment
The Leitz Moment is a 35mm rangefinder camera produced by the German optical maker Leitz, the firm best known for its Leica line. It sits at the specialist end of the company's rangefinder output rather than among its mainstream production models.
Sales data for the Moment is extremely limited: the only recorded UK auction result is a single hammer price of £38,000 in June 2021, which is a wholesale saleroom figure rather than a retail or dealer asking price. With just one data point on record, it is not possible to quote a meaningful range or median for what the camera is worth today in 2026, and any individual sale price will depend heavily on completeness, condition, and provenance.
Sales History
Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
