Rollei Heidoscop (6x13cm) (rollfilm)

The Rollei Heidoscop is a 6x13cm stereo camera that uses rollfilm to record paired images for stereoscopic viewing. It is an early-twentieth-century medium-format instrument made by Franke & Heidecke, the firm that later became known for the Rolleiflex twin-lens reflex line.

Auction data for this model is extremely thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result from late 2013 saw a Heidoscop 6x13cm rollfilm example sell for £550, and that figure remains the only datapoint available as of today in 2026. Because the sample is so small, this should be treated as a reference point rather than a reliable guide to what the camera is currently worth, and prices in the wider auction market can swing considerably with condition, completeness and originality of the optics.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Rollei Heidoscop 6x13cm rollfilm worth today?

The only auction record on file is a UK hammer price of £550 from 2013, so a precise current value cannot be stated with confidence; condition, optics and completeness will drive where an individual example sells.

How much does a Heidoscop sell for at auction?

With just one verified UK saleroom result of £550, there is not enough data to quote a reliable price range, and buyers should treat that figure as indicative rather than a market median.

What affects the value of a Heidoscop stereo camera?

Matched lens condition, working shutters on both sides, smooth rollfilm transport and the presence of original accessories such as the case and spools are the main factors that move the price up or down.
