The Ross Sutton Panorama Camera is a 19th-century wet-plate panoramic camera, built around Thomas Sutton's patented water-filled spherical lens to capture a wide field of view on curved glass plates. It is a collector-grade instrument from the early era of British photographic manufacturing, scarce in any condition and rarely encountered outside major auctions.

Auction evidence for this model is extremely thin: the only recorded UK saleroom result is a Christie's hammer price of £33,600 in 2006, which sets the sole reference point for what a Sutton Panorama is worth at wholesale auction level. Values today depend heavily on completeness, provenance and the presence of the original Sutton lens, and any fresh appearance in the auction market would be priced against that 2006 benchmark rather than a deep comparables set. Buyers asking how much one sells for should treat the figure as indicative of a single, exceptional sale rather than a stable market price.
