Meopta Opema (II)
The Meopta Opema (II) is a 35mm rangefinder camera produced in the former Czechoslovakia by Meopta of Přerov. It was positioned as a compact viewfinder/rangefinder camera using a 24x32mm frame format and an interchangeable-lens mount.
The available UK auction record is limited: a single hammer result of £188 in April 2025, achieved at saleroom level (wholesale, before commission). With only one data point, it is difficult to state a reliable price range, but as of today the Opema II appears to sell for broadly similar money when a clean working example reaches the UK auction market. Condition, completeness of lens and case, and shutter function are the main factors that move the value.
