Mamiya RB67

The Mamiya RB67 is a medium format 6x7 single-lens reflex camera introduced in 1970, designed for professional studio and portrait use. It uses a bellows focusing system, a rotating film back that allows horizontal and vertical framing without turning the camera, and interchangeable leaf-shutter Sekor lenses. Its all-mechanical operation made it a workhorse in commercial studios throughout the 1970s and 1980s.

Hammer prices at recent UK auction for the RB67 have spanned roughly £75–£500, with a median around £320 based on the sales recorded here. Today in 2026 the price a body sells for is heavily condition-dependent: clean, working outfits with a lens and back fetch the upper end, while rough or incomplete bodies often change hands for under £200. Because these are saleroom hammer figures, the retail value asked by dealers for serviced examples typically sits meaningfully above this range.

Sales History

Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher. How this figure is calculated.

Rows marked offer accepted did sell, on the date shown, but eBay does not publish the amount that was accepted. The figure we show is what the seller was asking, so the true sale price was lower — treat it as an upper bound. These rows are excluded from every price range, average and valuation on this site.
