Praktica MTL50

Out of stock
The Praktica MTL50 is a classic East German 35mm SLR, representing one of the final iterations of the long-running L-series. It utilises the universal M42 screw mount, offering access to a vast range of vintage glass. The MTL50 is distinguished by its use of LEDs in the viewfinder for exposure metering instead of the traditional needle, and it features a vertical-travel metal focal plane shutter with a top speed of 1/1000s.

Is it worth selling my Praktica MTL50?

If you're not using your Praktica MTL50 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 Praktica MTL50 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 Praktica MTL50 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.

Do you buy a faulty or broken Praktica MTL50?

Yes — we buy Praktica MTL50 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 Praktica MTL50?

Including the all of original manufactures accessories typically increases what we'll pay for your Praktica MTL50. If you are missing any of these no worries, just send what you can and we can adjust your quote once your device arrives.
