Soho Press camera

The Soho Press camera is a press-style plate camera produced under the Soho brand, a name associated with British camera manufacturing in the early-to-mid twentieth century. As a press camera, it was designed for hand-held news and reportage work using sheet film or plates.

Sales data for this model is extremely thin: the only recorded UK auction hammer result is £100 in April 2024, which sets the sole reference point for what a Soho Press camera is worth at saleroom level today. With just one data point, the price a given example sells for in 2026 will depend heavily on completeness, cosmetic condition and whether the original lens and back are present.
