O.P.L.-Foca Foca PF3L
The Foca PF3L is a 35mm rangefinder camera made by the French manufacturer O.P.L.-Foca. It was offered in a limited AIR (military) variant intended for service use, which is the configuration most often discussed by collectors today.
Sales data is limited: a single recent UK auction hammer result (wholesale, before commission) of £438 in February 2026 is the only data point available, so a meaningful range or median cannot yet be established in 2026. Until more results accumulate, that figure is the best guide to what a Foca PF3L AIR is worth at saleroom level, and condition, completeness of military markings, and matching accessories will materially affect the price it sells for.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Foca PF3L worth today?
On the limited evidence available, a Foca PF3L AIR (military) hammered at £438 at UK auction in February 2026, so that figure is the current reference point for value.
How much does a Foca PF3L sell for at auction?
Only one recorded UK hammer price exists at £438, which represents the wholesale saleroom level before buyer's premium rather than a retail price.
Is the AIR (military) variant more valuable?
Military-marked Foca cameras typically attract a premium with collectors, and the single recorded sale of a PF3L is an AIR example, so unmarked civilian bodies should not be assumed to reach the same price without further data.
