McGhie Field Camera
The McGhie Field Camera is a British-made wooden field camera, a folding large-format design of the type used for landscape and studio work on sheet film.
Sales data for the McGhie Field Camera is thin: a single UK auction hammer result from 2017 records a price of £120, which sits at wholesale saleroom level rather than retail. With only one data point on file as of today, it is difficult to state a reliable market value or what a clean example sells for now without more recent comparables.
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.

Frequently asked questions
What is a McGhie Field Camera worth?
Evidence is limited to one UK auction record at £120 hammer in 2017, so a current value cannot be reliably stated from the data on file.
How much does a McGhie Field Camera sell for at auction?
The only recorded saleroom result is £120, achieved in October 2017; more recent comparable sales would be needed to establish a current price range.
Is the McGhie Field Camera a usable large-format camera?
As a wooden field camera it is designed for sheet film and movements, but usability depends on the condition of the bellows, ground glass and any fitted lens and film holders.
