Fujifilm Fujica G 617 (Panorama Professional)
The Fujica G617 (Panorama Professional) is a medium-format panoramic film camera that exposes 6×17cm frames on 120/220 roll film. Introduced by Fuji in the early 1980s, it was positioned as a specialist tool for landscape and architectural photographers seeking an extreme-wide aspect ratio in a fixed-lens body.
Auction data for the G617 is thin: a single hammer result of £950 at UK auction in 2016 is the only verified sale on file, so any current value figure should be treated as indicative rather than a settled market price. Today, condition of the fixed lens, light seals and film transport drive what the camera sells for, and clean working examples typically command a premium over user-grade bodies.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Fujica G617 worth today?
Verified UK auction data is limited to one hammer price of £950 from 2016, so a precise current worth cannot be stated with confidence; condition and completeness of accessories will materially affect what any individual example sells for.
How much does a Fujica G617 sell for at auction?
The only confirmed UK saleroom result on record is £950 hammer, which gives a single data point rather than a reliable price range.
Why is the G617 a specialist camera?
It produces 6×17cm panoramic frames on 120/220 roll film through a fixed lens, which limits its use to photographers who specifically want that ultra-wide aspect ratio.
