The '''Leica MP''' is part of the [[Leica]] M-series [[rangefinder camera|rangefinder]] [[35mm film]] camera system released in 2003. There was also another '''Leica MP''' released after the [[Leica M3|M3]] in 1956.
 
 
 
The horizontally travelling cloth [[focal plane]] shutter has speeds of 1 to 1/1000 plus B mode. [[Flash synchronisation]] is available at 1/50 of a sec. The viewfinder has a 0.72 magnification with auto parallax correction. It has a RF base length of 49.9mm. The bright frame lines are automatically set based on the lenses used. It is compatible with the most commonly used focal lengths of 28 / 90 mm, 35 / 135 mm and 50 / 75mm lenses. The viewfinder eyepiece supports diopters with a range of ±3. It has a [[TTL]] meter with a range of -2 to 20 [[EV]] (ISO 100), with film speed settings of 6 to 6400 ISO. Three [[LED]]'s are in the finder to aid in exposure calculation.
