Voigtlander& Sohn Perkeo E
The Voigtländer Perkeo E is a folding 120 roll-film camera producing 6x6cm negatives, part of the Perkeo line introduced in the post-war era. It was positioned as a compact, pocketable medium-format camera aimed at enthusiasts who wanted larger negatives than 35mm in a travel-friendly body.
At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Perkeo E have sat in a narrow £210–£290 band, with a median around £250 based on the two sales on record in 2025 and early 2026. That range reflects wholesale saleroom results rather than dealer retail, and today's value is highly condition-sensitive — clean bellows, a smooth shutter and a clear lens are what the price tracks. With only a handful of verified results, the market is thin and a single strong example can move the range materially.
Sales History
