How Much Is a Used Leicaflex SL2 Worth? (September 19, 2026 Price Guide)
Live data, refreshed daily. Last updated . Reviewed by Ked, a Leica M shooter (film and digital).
I found an eBay seller manipulation that affects the market
liquidity (how long it takes to sell 1/2 the market). I have
gated that off and as a result you will notice a shift in the
market pace section of the fair price analysis. Most
cameras will now show a slower market pace.

The Leicaflex SL2 (1974-1976) is the last and most refined of the hand-built Wetzlar Leicaflex bodies. It kept the SL’s selective TTL metering but made the meter markedly more sensitive in low light, brightened the viewfinder, and redesigned the mirror box to accept the new 16mm and 19mm R lenses. The mechanical shutter runs to 1/2000s plus Bulb, X-sync 1/100, and it accepts 3-cam R lenses. Production lasted only about two years because the SL2 was so expensive to build that Leica reportedly sold it at a loss, which is what pushed the company into the cost-sharing Minolta partnership that produced the R3. That short run and apex-of-Wetzlar status make it the most sought-after Leicaflex; a commemorative ‘50 Jahre’ edition of 1,750 was made in 1975.
