Zeiss Ikon Ikonta 35 (522/24)
The Zeiss Ikon Ikonta 35 (522/24) is a 35mm folding viewfinder camera produced by Zeiss Ikon in the post-war era. It was positioned as a compact, pocketable everyday camera using the then-popular 35mm format.
With only a single recorded UK auction hammer result, the Ikonta 35 (522/24) sells for around £25 at saleroom level today, reflecting wholesale prices before buyer's premium. Values are highly condition-sensitive and the price a working example is worth can shift considerably with shutter health and cosmetic state.
