The Leica M7 is a 35mm film rangefinder camera introduced in 2002. It is part of the Leica M-series rangefinder camera system originating with the Leica M3.
The first M camera to have an electronically controlled shutter which offers aperture priority semi-automatic exposure in addition to manual exposure.
There are variations with 0.72, 0.85 and, 0.58 viewfinder magnifications.
Shutter
Electronically controlled horizontal travel with cloth curtains. Provided with two mechanically controlled speeds (1/60s and 1/125s) in case of battery failure.
Flash
TTL flash measurement possible with SCA connector. Normal synchronisation 1/50s, high speed flash synchronisation with suitable flash unit at any shutter speed.
