matt_veld Posted December 1, 2000 Share Posted December 1, 2000 Can anyone tell me anything about the Leica MDa as I have the opportunity to purchase a chrome one in exc+++ condition made in 1968at a reasonable price. I know they were made for scientific use but that's about all. Are they worth much and if so how much approxiamately? <p> Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_collier Posted December 1, 2000 Share Posted December 1, 2000 Well it is basically an M4 with no viewfinder. You could have it modified to be an M4 proper (Leica still offers this service) but the cost would be prohibitive as you need a new top plate and viewfinder/rangefinder assembly. It is an ideal camera for the visoflex or copy stand. If you have a Cosina 15, 12 or 25, it would be fine also as these lenses have no rangefinder coupling. MDa cameras come up on eBay fairly often but only seem to sell occasionally. Search completed auctions for some pricing. <p> Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
