Zeiss Ikon Ikoflex Favorit

The Zeiss Ikon Ikoflex Favorit (887/16) is a German-made twin-lens reflex camera for 6x6cm exposures on 120 roll film, representing the top-tier model in the Ikoflex TLR line introduced in the mid-1950s. It was positioned as a higher-specification alternative to the standard Ikoflex, aimed at advanced amateurs who wanted a coupled meter and refined handling in a medium-format TLR.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Ikoflex Favorit have ranged from around £160 to £200, with a median close to £180 based on 2024–2025 saleroom results. Historical records show the model has sold for as much as £310 at auction in earlier years, so today a clean, working example in 2026 tends to sell for a price that reflects cosmetic condition and meter function rather than rarity alone.
