Zenza Bronica Bronica S2

The Zenza Bronica S2 is a Japanese 6x6 medium format SLR introduced in the mid-1960s. It uses interchangeable film backs and interchangeable lenses, and was positioned as a professional studio and location camera competing with contemporaneous German 6x6 systems.

At UK auction today, hammer prices for the Bronica S2 typically fall in the £120–£340 range, with a median around £180 based on recent results. The July 2025 result of £338 sits at the top of that range, while tired bodies with cosmetic or mechanical issues sell for around £120, so condition and completeness of back and finder drive what an S2 is worth at saleroom level. Examples bundled with a clean Nikkor standard lens tend to fetch more than body-only lots.
