Zeiss Ikon Kinamo N25
The Zeiss Ikon Kinamo N25 is a 35mm cine camera produced by Zeiss Ikon for amateur and semi-professional motion picture use in the early 20th century. It was a compact, hand-cranked or spring-driven movie camera positioned for documentary and home cinematography rather than studio work.
With only one tracked UK auction record, pricing data is thin: a single hammer result of £126 at Christie's in 1999 represents the only datapoint for what a Kinamo N25 sells for at saleroom level. Today, anyone trying to value an example should treat this figure as historical context rather than a current market guide, and condition, completeness of accessories, and working mechanics will heavily influence any modern hammer price.
