Rollei Rolleicord IV
The Rolleicord IV is a twin-lens reflex (TLR) camera taking 120 roll film and producing 6×6 cm square negatives. It was part of Rollei's Rolleicord line, positioned as the more affordable counterpart to the Rolleiflex range from the same maker, Franke & Heidecke.
At UK auction, hammer prices for the Rolleicord IV have recently sat in a narrow £50–£69 band, with the small sample pointing to a working median of roughly £60. Today these are wholesale saleroom results rather than retail asking prices, and condition — particularly clean glass, smooth shutter speeds and an accurate focus screen — is what determines where in that range a given example sells for.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
