Canon IID2
The Canon IID2 is a 35mm rangefinder camera with a Leica-style screw mount (M39/LTM), produced by Canon in Japan during the early 1950s. It sat in Canon's interchangeable-lens rangefinder range as a mid-tier body aimed at serious amateurs and working photographers.
Hammer prices for the Canon IID2 at recent UK auction span roughly £220–£500, with sales clustered at the lower end more recently; the two recorded results give a midpoint near £360 at saleroom level. Because this is a thin dataset stretching back to 2005, today's realistic value for a clean, working IID2 is best judged against the £220 recent sale rather than the older £500 figure, and condition of the shutter curtains and rangefinder optics drives where any given body sells for within that band.
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.
