Sinar P2 Expolux XT outfit
The Sinar P2 is a 4x5 large-format monorail view camera from the Swiss manufacturer Sinar, aimed at studio and professional users. The Expolux XT outfit configuration packages the P2 with metering and exposure-control accessories for studio work.
UK auction data for the P2 Expolux XT outfit is extremely thin — a single hammer result of £9,000 was recorded in 2007, which is the only saleroom reference point available. Because that figure is nearly two decades old and based on one lot, it cannot be treated as a reliable guide to what the outfit is worth today; current value would depend on completeness of the kit and condition of the components.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Sinar P2 Expolux XT outfit worth in 2026?
The only UK auction record available is a £9,000 hammer price from 2007, so a current value cannot be reliably stated; condition and completeness of the outfit drive the price.
How much does a Sinar P2 Expolux XT outfit sell for at auction?
With just one verified saleroom result on file (£9,000, 2007), there is not enough data to give a current price range — the figure quoted here is a single historic hammer result and excludes commission.
Why is the price information for this outfit so limited?
Sinar P2 Expolux XT outfits appear at UK auction only rarely, and our records contain a single sale, which is why confidence in any quoted value is low.
