Too thin a market (9 active listings) for a reliable fair-price band, so this shows the actual listing history instead — hover a dot for its price, click for the full ad. Condition and accessories shift the line, so always read the listing.

The Leica MD, produced from 1964 to 1966, is a viewfinderless M body built for scientific, technical, and copying work rather than handheld rangefinder photography. Essentially an M1 with the viewfinder removed, sharing the M2-generation body, it has no rangefinder and no viewfinder, and was intended for use on reproduction stands or with the Visoflex mirror housing for macro and long-lens work, or handheld by scale focus. Roughly 3,000 units were made. On the used market the MD is a scarce collector body, valued for its clean technical lineage and its place as the first of Leica's dedicated viewfinderless M cameras.
