Nikon SP (black, with motor)
The Nikon SP is a 35mm rangefinder camera introduced by Nikon in 1957, positioned as the flagship of Nikon's rangefinder line. This particular configuration is the black-finish body paired with the dedicated motor drive, a far less common combination than the standard chrome body sold without a motor.
With only a single recorded UK auction result in our dataset — a black SP with motor that fetched £1,300 at saleroom level in late 2014 — there is not enough hammer-price data to define a reliable range or median for what one of these sells for today in 2026. Black-paint Nikon SP bodies and original motors are both highly condition-sensitive, and the value of any given example depends heavily on the originality of the black finish and the matching of the motor to the body.
