Plaubel Makina 67W
The Plaubel Makina 67W is a medium-format folding rangefinder using 120 roll film to produce 6×7cm negatives. It is a wide-angle variant within the Makina 67 series, aimed at photographers who wanted a compact, collapsible camera capable of large negatives in the field.
Sales data for the Makina 67W is thin, but a clean example sold for £1,500 at UK auction in late 2025 — a hammer result reflecting wholesale saleroom level rather than dealer retail. With only one recent record to anchor the price today, what a Makina 67W is worth in 2026 depends heavily on cosmetic condition, bellows integrity and rangefinder accuracy, all of which can move the value materially in either direction.
