Showa Kogaku Leotax Cameras

Leotax cameras are 35mm rangefinders built by Showa Kogaku in Japan, produced in the years following the Second World War. The line consisted of Leica screw-mount bodies aimed at the domestic and export markets during the 1950s.

Sales data for Leotax cameras is thin, with a single UK auction hammer result of £99 recorded in 2021. With only one wholesale saleroom data point, today's price for a Leotax body is best treated as indicative rather than established, and what one sells for will depend heavily on the specific model and cosmetic condition.

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.
