Braun Super Paxette II BL
The Braun Super Paxette II BL is a 35mm rangefinder camera made in West Germany by Carl Braun of Nuremberg, introduced in the 1950s. It used interchangeable lenses on a leaf-shutter mount and was positioned as a mid-tier rangefinder for amateur photographers.
Auction data for this model is extremely thin: a single UK saleroom record from 2009 shows a hammer price of £200, and we have no more recent results to anchor a current value or range in 2026. Because that figure is a wholesale auction-hammer level rather than a retail asking price, today's worth is best treated as indicative only until further sales are recorded.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
