Fujifilm Fuji GX 617
The Fuji GX 617 is a panoramic medium-format film camera that exposes a 6x17cm frame on 120 or 220 roll film. Built as a professional landscape and architectural tool, it uses interchangeable Fujinon lenses and a rangefinder-style body with a viewfinder mask matched to each focal length.
At UK auction the Fuji GX 617 has changed hands at hammer prices between roughly £2,000 and £2,600, with a median around £2,200 across the recorded sales. A 2025 result at £2,625 suggests current saleroom values remain firm in 2026, although with only a handful of hammer results condition and the lens supplied with the body strongly influence what each example is worth. Buyers asking what a GX 617 sells for at wholesale auction level should expect the price to swing significantly depending on which Fujinon lens is included.
