Linhof M 679
The Linhof M 679 is a German-made medium-format technical view camera designed for studio and architectural work, accepting roll-film and digital backs alongside large-format movements. Linhof positioned the M 679 series as a precision modular system aimed at professional photographers requiring full rise, fall, shift and tilt controls in a compact body.
UK auction data for the M 679 is extremely thin: the only verified hammer result on file is a single Christie's sale from 1999 at £2,070, which reflects wholesale saleroom level rather than dealer retail. With just one data point on record, it is not possible to give a reliable current price, value or range for what an M 679 sells for today in 2026, and buyers should treat that historic figure as indicative only.
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.
