About Us

Monark Price Guide

First published in 1951, the Monark Price Guide started life as a simple typewritten and hand-duplicated listing containing prices of new cameras and lenses.

Initially available only to a select few shops, it grew over 50 years to become a quality A5 publication. Now, for the first time, this information is available to subscribers via the Internet.

If you have a camera or other photographic item to sell, we have many hundreds of contacts throughout the UK photo trade and may be able to get you more than you think. From a single camera, to whole collections, we may already have a customer waiting for your cameras. Just use our contact form and fill out the enquiry details with all the relevant information for a no-obligation reply.

We also undertake independent valuations of items, or camera collections for insurance or probate purposes. Please Email Insurance Valuations for further details.

IMPORTANT NEWS

Due to the massive changes in the photographic market over the last few years we can no longer keep up with the large number of new camera models constantly being launched so it is with regret that we have now discontinued the on-line camera price guide. Any outstanding time on your subscription will still allow you access to the database, but we will not be able to constantly keep it updated so we suggest you double-check any values given, especially for older models. May we take this opportunity to thank you for your support over the last 60+ years. WE STILL BUY CAMERAS Yes, we still buy cameras, old or new, lenses and most other photographic items, especially anything 3D. Please call with details.
