Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta IV

The Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta IV is a folding medium-format rangefinder camera using 120 roll film. It sits in the Super Ikonta line of German-made folders, a range positioned as premium amateur and professional equipment.

At UK auction today, hammer prices for the Super Ikonta IV have spanned roughly £100 to £570, with a median around the £220 mark based on the limited saleroom record available. Condition drives value strongly: clean, working examples with accurate rangefinder coupling and clear optics sell for more, while cosmetically tired or sticky-shutter bodies drag the price down. Buyers should note the sales figures reflect wholesale auction hammer levels rather than dealer retail, so a serviced example from a specialist will typically cost more than these figures suggest.
