Leica R4, R5, R6, R7 were 35 mm SLR cameras manufactured by Leica between 1980 and 1997 and belonged to the manual focusing R-System, which was offered from 1965 to 2009.

Following the success of the Leica R3 the company, in continuing cooperation with Minolta, produced the R4–R7 series all based on the same chassis.
