Plaubel Makina 670

The Plaubel Makina 670 is a folding medium-format rangefinder camera that shoots 6x7 frames on 120 roll film. It was introduced in the 1980s as a compact, high-end field camera positioned above typical medium-format folders, with a fixed Nikkor lens and a collapsing bellows front.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Makina 670 have ranged from about £1,200 to £3,100, with a median near £1,400 — these are wholesale saleroom results and exclude buyer's and seller's commission. In today's market the model remains condition-sensitive: clean, fully working bodies sell for well over £1,000, while the 2022 result of £3,125 shows what an exceptional example is worth when bidders compete. Values in 2026 sit firmly in four figures, reflecting limited supply and steady collector demand.
