The Zeiss Ikon Bebe is a small-format folding plate camera produced by Zeiss Ikon, the German manufacturer formed in 1926 from the merger of Contessa-Nettel, Ernemann, Goerz and Ica. It was aimed at amateur photographers wanting a pocketable folding camera for glass plates or sheet film.

Auction data for the Bebe is extremely thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result on file shows £109 (Christie's, January 1998), and that figure remains the only firm reference point for what the model is worth today in 2026. Because this is a wholesale auction-hammer level rather than a dealer asking price, retail values for clean working examples can sit higher, and condition, completeness of the original case and bellows integrity drive most of the variance in price.
