Debrie High Speed model F
The Debrie High Speed model F is a cine camera produced by the French manufacturer Établissements André Debrie, a maker historically associated with professional motion-picture equipment. As a high-speed cine instrument it was aimed at technical and scientific filming rather than amateur use.
With only one tracked UK auction result, the price reference for the High Speed model F sits at £3,900 hammer in November 2025 — a wholesale saleroom level rather than a retail asking price. Today a single data point is not enough to establish a reliable range or median, so what a Debrie High Speed model F is worth in 2026 should be treated as indicative only.
