The Yashica Samurai Z2 is a 35mm half-frame bridge camera with an SLR-style body and a built-in zoom lens, produced in the early 1990s. This transparent-bodied version is a clear-shell variant of the standard Samurai Z2, with internal mechanisms visible through the housing, and was sold as a novelty or display version of the autofocus point-and-shoot.

Hammer data is thin: a single UK auction result from August 2024 saw the transparent Samurai Z2 sell for £75. With only one verified saleroom price on file, that figure is the best indication today of what the camera is worth at wholesale level, though it should not be read as a firm market median. Clean, working examples with the clear shell intact may sell for more than the standard opaque Z2, but more sales data is needed to confirm any variant premium.
