Nikon F Photomic (KE-24)
The Nikon F Photomic is a 35mm SLR film camera, part of Nikon's professional F-series introduced in the 1960s. The Photomic designation refers to the metered prism finder fitted to the standard F body. The KE-24 variant is a militarised version produced for US military use, which makes it considerably rarer than civilian-issue F Photomic bodies.
Sales data for the F Photomic (KE-24) is extremely thin: a single UK auction hammer result from 2010 sold for £1,500, reflecting the wholesale saleroom level rather than retail or dealer asking prices. With only one recorded sale in our dataset, today's price for a KE-24 example is difficult to pin down, and what a clean body is worth in 2026 will depend heavily on completeness, condition and provenance documentation. Buyers researching what a Nikon F KE-24 sells for should treat the £1,500 figure as a single historic data point rather than a reliable median.
