The Kiev IIA is a Soviet-made 35mm rangefinder camera produced in Ukraine, based on the pre-war Contax II design whose tooling was transferred to Kiev after 1945. It sits in the interchangeable-lens rangefinder category and uses the Contax bayonet mount, placing it alongside other post-war Soviet reinterpretations of German camera engineering.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Kiev IIA have spanned roughly £25 to £150, with only a small number of verified results to anchor a median. As of 2026, what a Kiev IIA is worth today depends heavily on cosmetic condition, whether the rangefinder is accurate, and whether a working lens is included; clean, functional examples sell for more, while rough bodies routinely sell for well under £50.
