Canon Prima 5
The Canon Prima 5 is a 35mm autofocus compact camera, part of Canon's Sure Shot/Prima line of point-and-shoot film cameras. It was positioned as a consumer-grade compact for everyday photography.
Sales data for the Prima 5 is extremely limited, with a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £35 in 2023. Today the model sits at the budget end of the compact-film market, and its value at saleroom level is modest, though clean working examples with original packaging can sell for slightly more in the wider used market.
