What it is
{"overview":"The Lancaster Kamrex De Luxe is a British-made plate camera from Lancaster of Birmingham, a maker active in the late Victorian and Edwardian period. With just one wholesale data point, the Kamrex De Luxe is worth roughly that figure as a guide price, though condition of the bellows, woodwork and any original lens will swing what a clean example actually sells for.","buying_guide":"On Lancaster plate cameras of this era the most common faults are pinholed or split bellows, loose or cracked mahogany panels, tarnished brass fittings, and missing plate holders or ground glass.
Generated summary, 6 May 2026 — not checked by hand; prices on this page come from the sales, not from this text.
Questions
What should I check before buying one?
Check the bellows for light leaks, the woodwork for cracks or repairs, and confirm the camera comes with its lens, ground glass and at least one plate holder, as missing accessories materially reduce value.
