Underwood Field Camera

The Underwood Field Camera is a wooden folding plate field camera, a body type used for large-format sheet-film and plate photography. Field cameras of this kind were typically supplied for studio and outdoor view-camera work.

Sales data for the Underwood Field Camera is very limited: a single recorded UK auction hammer result from January 2025 sold for £30, so today the realistic value at saleroom level sits around that figure rather than at retail. With only one data point, this price should be treated as indicative of what a basic example sells for at auction rather than a firm market value.

Sales History

Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
