Leica R6

Out of stock
The Leica R6 is a fully mechanical 35mm SLR camera that operates independently of battery power, except for the integrated light meter. Released in the late 1980s, it offers shutter speeds from 1s to 1/1000s and features both spot and integrated metering modes. It is highly regarded for its build quality and provides access to the exceptional range of Leica R-mount lenses in a compact, reliable body.

Is it worth selling my Leica R6?

If you're not using your Leica R6 regularly, yes — used camera gear depreciates over time, so the longer you wait, the less it's worth. Selling now means you turn idle kit into cash you can put toward your next body, lens or trip.

Every Leica R6 we sell is inspected, tested and graded before it goes on the site. It also comes with a 1-year SDS warranty (UK only, excluding items graded Faulty) and a 14-day return window if it isn't what you expected.

What condition will my Leica R6 be graded?

We grade every item against five clearly-defined conditions: Like New, Excellent, Good, Well Used or Faulty. Cosmetic wear, functional issues and what's included are all taken into account. Full criteria are on our Conditions guide page.

Once your Leica R6 arrives and passes inspection (usually within 1–2 working days of receipt), payment is sent straight to your bank account. Most sellers are paid within 24-48 hours of posting their item.

Do you buy a faulty or broken Leica R6?

Yes — we buy Leica R6 units graded Faulty too, though the price will be lower. Be honest about any issues in your quote: it speeds up inspection and avoids revised offers later.

What accessories should I include with my Leica R6?

Including the all of original manufactures accessories typically increases what we'll pay for your Leica R6. If you are missing any of these no worries, just send what you can and we can adjust your quote once your device arrives.
