Ihagee Roll-Paff-Reflex No.21H
The Ihagee Roll-Paff-Reflex No.21H is an early German rollfilm reflex camera produced by the Dresden maker Ihagee. It belongs to the box-form reflex category of the pre-war era, aimed at amateur photographers wanting a waist-level viewing system on rollfilm.
Auction data for this model is extremely thin: a single UK saleroom result from September 2023 saw an example sell for £31 at hammer (wholesale level, excluding commission). On that one data point the price for a Roll-Paff-Reflex No.21H today sits in the low tens of pounds, but with only one sale on record the figure should be treated as indicative rather than a reliable market value.

Frequently asked questions
What is an Ihagee Roll-Paff-Reflex No.21H worth today?
Based on the only recorded UK auction sale, an example sold for £31 at hammer in 2023; with just one data point, that figure is the best available guide to current value rather than a firm market price.
How much does a Roll-Paff-Reflex No.21H sell for at auction?
The single tracked UK hammer price is £31, so realistic expectations for a comparable example sit in that low double-digit range, with condition and completeness likely to swing the price either way.
Is the Ihagee Roll-Paff-Reflex No.21H a collectible camera?
It is a pre-war Dresden rollfilm reflex of interest to Ihagee and early-reflex collectors, but the thin sales record means demand is narrow and price discovery is limited.
