Zeiss Ikon Hologon Ultrawide (10.0659)

The Zeiss Ikon Hologon Ultrawide (10.0659) is a 35mm film camera built around a fixed 15mm Hologon ultra-wide-angle lens. It was produced by Zeiss Ikon in the late 1960s and early 1970s as a specialist wide-angle tool, positioned at the top of the market when new.

At recent UK auction, hammer results for the Hologon Ultrawide have ranged from around £62 for an incomplete or faulty example up to £3,000 for a clean, complete set, with most verified results sitting between roughly £1,300 and £2,000. The most recent 2025 sale fetched £2,000 at saleroom level, suggesting that in 2026 a complete, working outfit is worth comfortably into four figures, while the price a rough body sells for can collapse well below £100. Condition, completeness of the dedicated centre-filter and finder, and cosmetic state drive very large swings in value.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Zeiss Ikon Hologon Ultrawide (10.0659) worth today?

In today's UK auction market a complete, working Hologon Ultrawide is typically worth between about £1,300 and £2,000 at hammer, with exceptional outfits having reached £3,000.

How much does a Hologon Ultrawide sell for if it is incomplete or faulty?

Incomplete or non-working examples have sold for as little as £62 at UK auction, so the price drops sharply when the centre-filter, finder or shutter function is missing.

Why does the price vary so much between examples?

Value is driven almost entirely by the condition of the fixed 15mm Hologon lens and the presence of the dedicated centre-filter and viewfinder; these factors explain the wide range from under £100 to several thousand pounds.
