All prices are estimates, based on average auction selling prices from my own experience, or as indicated in McKeown's 2005-2006 Price Guide to Antique and Classic Cameras © September 1, 2004; McBroom's Camera Bluebook, 6th Edition © 2000; or the Camprice online subscription service. It should be understood that the prices listed are only averages taken from a statistically significant number of auctions, and cameras will be found that sell for much more (or much less) than the listed average price, depending on the mood of the buyer and seller at any given moment. No actual selling price is either implied or guaranteed.

Conditions Affecting Camera Value
I believe collectible cameras should be judged on a combination of cosmetic condition and functionality. I also know that people value cameras in distinct and different ways. For instance, a camera in mint cosmetic condition, but not functioning, may be perfectly acceptable to a collector. On the other hand, a user may not care much about the appearance of the camera, as long as it works. Link to my General Rating Table for both cosmetic value and functionality of used cameras.
