Ica Favorit Tropical
The Ica Favorit Tropical is an early 20th-century German large-format folding plate camera, built in a tropical specification with teak woodwork and brass fittings intended for use in hot and humid climates. It was positioned as a premium field camera for serious amateur and professional photographers when new.
Sales data for the Favorit Tropical is extremely thin, with only a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £293 from a Christie's sale, so a reliable price band cannot be established as of today. Buyers researching what an Ica Favorit Tropical is worth in 2026 should treat that figure as one wholesale data point rather than a current market value, since condition of the wood, bellows and brass dramatically affects what the camera sells for at saleroom level.
