Agfa Flexilette

The Agfa Flexilette is a 35mm twin-lens reflex camera produced by Agfa of Germany, introduced at the start of the 1960s. It was an unusual attempt to bring the TLR layout — more commonly seen on medium-format cameras — to the 35mm format, aimed at amateur photographers who wanted waist-level reflex viewing on a smaller film.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Flexilette have been modest, with the two recorded sales landing at £40 and £75, giving a working range of roughly £40–£75. With so few data points, today's value is condition-led: clean, working bodies sit toward the upper end, while examples with shutter or viewfinder issues sell for less.
