Zeiss Ikon Taxona
The Zeiss Ikon Taxona is a compact 35mm viewfinder camera produced in Germany in the post-war era. It was a small-format, fixed-lens model aimed at the budget end of the 35mm market when new.
At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Taxona have been modest, with the two recorded sales falling in a £25–£35 range and a median around £30. As of 2026, this is a low-value collectable where condition and the presence of the original case sway what each example sells for, and confident valuations require more data than is currently available.
