Goerz Roll-Tenax (Rollfilm-Tenax) (4x6.5)
The Goerz Roll-Tenax (Rollfilm-Tenax) in the 4x6.5 format is a folding rollfilm camera produced by the German optical firm C.P. Goerz. It belongs to the early twentieth-century era of compact folding cameras designed for amateur use on small-format rollfilm.
Auction evidence for this model is extremely thin: a single recorded UK saleroom result from 2004 saw a Roll-Tenax fetch £138 at hammer, which gives only a historical reference point rather than a reliable current value. Because no recent comparable sales are available, today's worth is not something a buyer or seller can confidently price from the data, and what an example sells for in 2026 will depend heavily on condition, completeness and bidder interest on the day.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Goerz Roll-Tenax (4x6.5) worth today?
There is too little auction data to give a current market value with confidence; the only recorded UK hammer result on file is £138 from 2004, which is a historical data point rather than a present-day price.
How much does a Goerz Roll-Tenax sell for at auction?
On the single verified UK auction record available, an example sold for £138 at hammer in 2004, and no more recent comparable sales are in the dataset to confirm where the price sits now.
Is the Roll-Tenax a rare camera?
It appears infrequently in UK auction records, but with only one logged sale it is not possible to say definitively whether scarcity or simply low collector demand drives that infrequency.
