Minox EC

The Minox EC is a subminiature camera using the 8x11mm film format that Minox pioneered, introduced in 1981 as the simplest fully automatic model in the range. It was positioned as an entry-level pocket camera, smaller and lighter than the mechanical Minox B and LX models that preceded it.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Minox EC have sat in a modest £10–£50 band, with a median around £35 across 2024–2025 saleroom results. Today the EC is one of the more affordable ways into the 8x11mm Minox system at wholesale level, and condition plays a larger role than rarity in what an example sells for.
