Voigtlander& Sohn Vitessa T

The Voigtländer Vitessa T is a 35mm rangefinder camera introduced in the late 1950s. Unlike the earlier folding Vitessa models, the T version features interchangeable lenses, positioning it as a more versatile enthusiast rangefinder when new.

At UK auction today, hammer prices for the Vitessa T typically fall in a £20–£210 range, with most recent saleroom results clustering around £30–£70 for the body with a standard lens. A clean, well-presented example sells for noticeably more than a rough one, and the presence of additional interchangeable lenses can lift the value toward the upper end of that range. These are wholesale hammer figures achieved in the auction market and exclude buyer's premium, so retail asking prices from dealers generally sit higher.
