Voigtlander& Sohn Vito Ill

The Voigtländer Vito III is a 35mm folding rangefinder camera introduced by Voigtländer in the early 1950s. It sat at the top of the Vito folding line, pairing a coupled rangefinder with a fast fixed lens, and was positioned as a premium compact for enthusiasts rather than a budget snapshot camera.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Vito III have sat in a tight band of roughly £160–£180, with the two most recent results falling at £160 and £175 and a median close to £170. That is the value a Vito III sells for at saleroom level today; dealer retail with a full service typically runs higher, and condition of the bellows, rangefinder patch and lens glass drives most of the spread.
