Kodak Medalist I
The Kodak Medalist I is a medium-format rangefinder camera that takes 620 roll film, introduced in the mid-1940s. It was positioned as a robust, professional-grade body and is often known to collectors simply as the "Medalist".
Sales data for the Medalist I is thin, with a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £214 in October 2025, which gives an indication of what a complete example sells for at saleroom level today rather than a reliable median. With only one data point, the wider price and value range is not yet established, and condition of the bellows-free helical mount, shutter, and rangefinder optics will heavily influence what any individual example is worth.
