Ihagee Roll-Paff-Reflex

The Ihagee Roll-Paff-Reflex is a rollfilm reflex camera produced by Ihagee, the Dresden-based German camera maker. It is an early-period model from the marque, predating Ihagee's better-known Exakta line, and its name indicates its use of rollfilm in a reflex configuration.

At recent UK auction the Roll-Paff-Reflex has sold for modest sums, with hammer prices of £35 in late 2023 and £50 in 2022, while an older saleroom result from 2004 reached £320 — a reminder that condition, completeness and provenance can shift what this camera is worth by an order of magnitude. Taking recent results as the guide for today's market, typical value sits in the £35–£50 band, though the thin sample size means any median figure should be treated as indicative rather than authoritative. Because these are wholesale hammer prices rather than retail, dealer asking figures for comparable examples are routinely higher.
