Siemens & Halske C 'Marine'
The Siemens & Halske C 'Marine' is a sub-cine motion-picture camera for 16mm film, produced for marine and field use. It sits within the Siemens C family of amateur and professional cine cameras from the mid-twentieth century.
Evidence on what this camera is worth in today's market is thin, with a single UK auction hammer result on file at £300 in 2018 — a wholesale saleroom level that excludes commission. With only one data point, the price a Siemens & Halske C 'Marine' sells for in 2026 should be treated as indicative rather than a reliable median, and condition and completeness of any 'Marine' accessories will move the value materially.
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. How this figure is calculated.
