Debrie Parvo

The Debrie Parvo is a French-made 35mm cine camera, introduced in the early 20th century for professional motion-picture use. Developed by Établissements André Debrie of Paris, it became a standard tool in European film production during the silent and early sound eras.

At UK auction, hammer prices for the Debrie Parvo have ranged from around £750 to £780, with a median near £760 based on the limited saleroom record available. As of 2026, values at this wholesale level depend heavily on completeness — cameras retaining original magazines, lenses and wooden cases tend to sell for more, while stripped bodies are worth considerably less.
