The Houghton Ensign Special Reflex is a British-made single-lens reflex roll-film camera from the early twentieth century, produced by the London firm Houghton (later Houghtons-Butcher / Ensign). It was positioned as a serious amateur and advanced hobbyist SLR in an era when reflex viewing through a waist-level hood was the preferred system for action and portrait work.

Sales data for the Ensign Special Reflex is very thin, so any guide to its worth in 2026 has to be read with caution. The single UK auction hammer result on record sold for £38 in April 2024, which sets a wholesale saleroom benchmark rather than a retail price — clean, complete examples with a working shutter and intact bellows would typically sell for more, while incomplete bodies tend to fetch less.
