The Linhof Kardan is a German-made large-format view camera, a body type associated with studio and architectural work where movements such as rise, fall, shift, swing and tilt are required. Linhof, based in Munich, has produced view cameras under the Kardan name across several variants intended for professional use.

Sales evidence for the Kardan is thin: a single Christie's hammer result of £920 from 1999 is the only auction record available, so a current price range and median cannot be established for today's UK auction market. Because the figure is wholesale (hammer, before commission) and more than two decades old, it should be treated only as a historical data point rather than a guide to what a Kardan is worth or sells for in 2026.
