Yashica Finecam SL400R
The Yashica Finecam SL400R is a compact digital camera, part of Yashica's early-2000s consumer digital line. It was a small-sensor point-and-shoot positioned for casual use rather than enthusiast photography.
At recent UK auction in 2025, hammer prices for the Finecam SL400R have sat in a narrow £62–£88 band across the two recorded sales, with a midpoint around £75. With only a couple of saleroom results to reference, today's value is best treated as indicative; condition, working battery and presence of original accessories are likely to push results toward the upper end of what this model sells for.
