Minolta ER
The Minolta ER is a fixed-lens 35mm camera from the Japanese maker Minolta. With only two recorded UK auction sales to reference, its positioning and feature set are not established here beyond its identity as a 35mm Minolta model.
At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Minolta ER have sat in a narrow £38–£44 band across the two 2025 sales on record, placing its current value firmly at the budget end of the collectable Minolta market. These are wholesale saleroom results, so retail dealer asking prices today in 2026 would typically sit higher. With such a thin dataset, what the ER sells for can shift noticeably on condition and completeness.
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.
