Ihagee Exakta A chrome

The Ihagee Exakta A is a 127 roll-film single-lens reflex made in Dresden, part of the original Exakta series introduced in the 1930s. It is a waist-level SLR aimed at amateur and advanced amateur users of the period.

Sales data for the Exakta A chrome is very thin: a single 2023 UK auction hammer result of £100 is the only reference point on file, so any current value figure is indicative rather than firmly established. At saleroom level in 2026 a clean, working chrome example would be expected to sell for a price in that region, with cosmetic condition and shutter function the main swing factors.

Frequently asked questions

What is an Ihagee Exakta A chrome worth today?

Based on the single UK auction hammer result on file (£100 in 2023), a chrome Exakta A in usable condition is worth around that figure, though the very limited sample size means the price could vary either way.

How much does an Exakta A sell for at auction?

The only logged UK sale sells for £100 at hammer, which excludes buyer's premium, so the all-in cost to a bidder would be higher than the headline price.

Is the Exakta A a 35mm camera?

No. The Exakta A is a 127 roll-film SLR; Ihagee's 35mm Exakta line came later with the Kine Exakta.
