Gomz Sputnik
The Gomz Sputnik is a Soviet medium-format stereo camera that takes paired 6x6 frames on 120 roll film, producing images intended for stereoscopic viewing. It was introduced in the late 1950s as an affordable consumer stereo outfit, typically sold with a Bakelite body and a matching viewer.
Hammer prices for the Sputnik at UK auction are thin on the ground, with the only verified saleroom result in our records reaching £69 at Christie's in 1998. On that single data point alone it is difficult to say what a Sputnik is worth today in 2026, and current value will depend heavily on completeness of the outfit (viewer, case, instructions) and the condition of the Bakelite shell.
