Showa Kogaku Leotax T2L

The Leotax T2L is a Japanese 35mm rangefinder camera built by Showa Kogaku in the Leica screw-mount tradition. It belongs to the post-war family of Leotax bodies that competed with Canon and Nicca in the domestic and export rangefinder market of the 1950s.

Public auction data for the Leotax T2L is very thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result of £360 in late 2014 is the only reference point we hold, so any sense of what one is worth today is provisional rather than a reliable median or range. Hammer prices at UK auction exclude buyer's and seller's commission, and on a model this rarely traded, condition, completeness with a period lens, and cosmetic originality will move the price far more than any nominal benchmark. Buyers in 2026 should treat that figure as a single data point and watch fresh sales before committing.
