Micro Precision Products (MPP) Mugshot 4x5 Prison

{"overview":"The MPP Mugshot 4x5 is a large-format sheet-film camera made by Micro Precision Products, the British manufacturer active from the post-war period onwards. As of 2026, the value sits firmly in specialist-collector territory: condition, completeness of the original fittings, and whether the camera retains its dedicated lens and back drive what it sells for at saleroom level, and the spread in recent results reflects exactly that.","buying_guide":"Because this is a large-format wooden\/metal camera with bellows and a mechanical shutter, inspect the bellows for pinholes, check the ground glass for cracks, and verify that the shutter fires cleanly at all marked speeds. Completeness matters disproportionately to price — missing dark slides, film holders, or the original lens will pull value toward the lower end of the range.
