Zeiss Ikon Movikon 16

The Zeiss Ikon Movikon 16 is a 16mm cine camera from the German manufacturer Zeiss Ikon. It sits in the company's pre-war and mid-century amateur and semi-professional movie camera line, distinct from Zeiss Ikon's better-known still cameras.

Auction data for the Movikon 16 is very thin: the only recorded UK saleroom result we hold is a single hammer price of £35 from 2001, so any current value estimate carries significant uncertainty. With just one historical data point, today's market price is best confirmed by tracking live auction results rather than relying on a published figure, and condition, completeness of accessories and working mechanics will drive what an example sells for.
