Kodak Panoram Kodak No.4

The Panoram Kodak No.4 is a swing-lens panoramic roll-film camera from Kodak's late-Victorian and Edwardian catalogue, designed to capture wide-angle landscape views on a single negative by pivoting the lens across a curved film plane. It was aimed at amateur photographers who wanted panoramic results without resorting to specialist plate equipment.

At UK auction, hammer results for the Panoram Kodak No.4 have spanned roughly £75 to £140 across the two recorded sales, with a midpoint around £110 — these are saleroom wholesale figures, not dealer retail. As of today in 2026 the value any given example sells for is highly condition-sensitive, with bellows integrity and a functioning swing mechanism being the main determinants of what the camera is worth.
