Rodenstock Clarovid II
The Rodenstock Clarovid II is a folding rollfilm camera produced by the German optics maker Rodenstock. It sits in the mid-twentieth-century folder category, a market segment then dominated by makers such as Zeiss Ikon and Voigtländer.
Sales data for the Clarovid II is extremely thin, so any value figure here should be treated as indicative rather than typical. The single UK auction hammer result on file is £3,125 from 2002, an outlier price that likely reflected an unusually complete or collectable example rather than what a standard user-grade body would sell for today in 2026.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Rodenstock Clarovid II worth today?
With only one UK auction record on file (£3,125 in 2002), there is not enough data to quote a reliable current price; a routine user example would almost certainly sell for far less than that outlier figure.
How much does a Rodenstock Clarovid II sell for at auction?
The only logged hammer price is £3,125, but a single sale over two decades old is not a dependable guide to what the camera sells for in the present market.
Is the Clarovid II a good buyer's camera?
It is a scarce collector's folder rather than a practical shooter, and its value is highly condition-sensitive — bellows, shutter and lens condition will dominate the price.
