Rare Leica MP Cameras Go to Auction

Leica, the only professional camera company offering three 35mm film cameras, is auctioning rare models including an original MP Black Paint from 1956, of which only 141 were made. This specific MP camera, once owned by photographer Tazio Secchiaroli, is expected to fetch over $700,000. Leica also offers a modern MP version, still in production, for a significantly lower price. The auction features a variety of vintage and modern Leica cameras, attracting both collectors and younger users seeking vintage gear.
