Kodak Retina II (014)

The Kodak Retina II (014) is a 35mm folding rangefinder camera produced by Kodak AG in Stuttgart in the early postwar period. It was positioned as a higher-specification alternative to the simpler Retina I, adding a coupled rangefinder for focusing.

With only a single recorded UK auction hammer result in our sales history, pricing reference for the Retina II (014) is thin: one example sold for £162 in 2004. That figure is a wholesale saleroom result rather than a retail asking price, and today values for folding Retinas remain heavily condition-dependent — clean shutters, clear rangefinders and crisp bellows are what determine whether one sells for a modest sum or commands a stronger price.
