Lechner Flugzeugkamera (Aerial camera)

The Lechner Flugzeugkamera is an aerial camera, a specialist instrument designed for photography from aircraft rather than general hand-held use. As a maker-specific aerial camera, it sits in the niche collector category of early aviation and technical photographic equipment.

Auction records for the Lechner Flugzeugkamera are thin, with only two hammer results on file at UK saleroom level: £1,200 in 2009 and £1,500 in 2004, giving a wholesale range of roughly £1,200–£1,500 before buyer's premium. With so few data points, today's value for this model is best treated as indicative rather than settled, and condition, completeness and provenance will materially shift what any given example sells for.
