Nikon F2AS Photomic
The Nikon F2AS Photomic is a 35mm film SLR and the final iteration of Nikon's professional F2 system, distinguished by its DP-12 metering prism with silicon photodiode metering. Aimed at working professionals when introduced, it sits at the top of the F2 line alongside earlier Photomic variants.
Sales data for the F2AS Photomic is thin, with a single 2022 UK auction hammer result of £150 standing as the only reference point in our records. As that figure reflects a wholesale saleroom result rather than a dealer asking price, what an F2AS Photomic is worth in 2026 is best treated as indicative; clean, fully-functional bodies typically sell for more than rougher examples, and the price a given camera fetches at auction depends heavily on cosmetic condition and meter accuracy.
Sales History

Frequently asked questions
What is a Nikon F2AS Photomic worth today?
On the limited UK auction data we hold, an F2AS Photomic sold for £150 at hammer in 2022; condition and a working DP-12 meter are the main drivers of price.
How much does a Nikon F2AS Photomic sell for at auction?
Our records show one UK saleroom result at £150, so treat that as a single data point rather than a firm market value.
Is the F2AS Photomic's value affected by the meter working?
Yes — a functioning DP-12 meter is central to the price a buyer will pay, and bodies with dead electronics typically sell for noticeably less.
