Leitz MP 6 chrome (prototype)
The Leitz MP 6 chrome is a 35mm rangefinder camera body, presented here as a prototype example. The MP line was a small-production, professional-oriented branch of Leitz's screw and M-mount rangefinder cameras.
Prototype MP 6 examples are exceptionally scarce and trade at collector levels rather than user prices; the single UK auction-hammer record in our data sold for £10,000 in late 2010. With only one data point, today's value depends heavily on provenance, completeness and authentication, and a comparable example offered at saleroom level could sell for materially more or less than that figure. As a guide to what a chrome MP 6 prototype is worth, treat the recorded hammer price as an indicative reference rather than a current market median.
