Zeiss Ikon Taxo 126/7

The Zeiss Ikon Taxo 126/7 is an early 20th-century folding plate camera produced by Zeiss Ikon, the German manufacturer formed in 1926 from the merger of several established camera firms. It belongs to the entry-level folding plate category that Zeiss Ikon offered alongside its more advanced Ikonta and Contax lines.

Auction data for this model is extremely thin: a single recorded UK saleroom result from 2003 saw a Taxo 126/7 hammer at £125, and there is no recent activity to establish what the camera is worth or sells for in today's market. With only one data point more than two decades old, any current price estimate would be speculative, and value will hinge heavily on condition, completeness of the bellows, and presence of the original case.
