Nikon 20-60cm f/9.5-10.5 Auto Nikkor Telephoto Zoom

The Nikon 20-60cm f/9.5-10.5 Auto Nikkor is a long-range telephoto zoom lens covering 200-600mm in modern notation, designed for distant subjects such as wildlife, aviation and sports. It mounts via the Nikon F bayonet and represents one of the more specialised entries in the Nikkor zoom catalogue from the manual-focus era.

Sales data for this lens is thin: a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £80 in November 2025 sets the only datapoint for what a 20-60cm Auto Nikkor is currently worth at saleroom level in 2026. Because that figure is a wholesale auction price rather than a dealer asking price, retail value can sit meaningfully higher, and a clean copy with original hood and caps would likely sell for more than this single example suggests.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Nikon 20-60cm f/9.5-10.5 Auto Nikkor zoom worth today?

Based on the limited UK auction record available, one example sold for £80 hammer in late 2025, so today a similar copy is likely to fetch a comparable price at auction, though retail value is typically higher.

How much does the 20-60cm Auto Nikkor sell for at UK auction?

The only verified hammer price in our records is £80, which gives a rough indication of value rather than a firm market range.

Is the 20-60cm Auto Nikkor a rare lens?

It appears infrequently in UK salerooms compared with standard Nikkor primes, and the very limited sales history suggests it is an uncommon listing rather than a regular auction fixture.

What should I check before buying one?

Prioritise optical condition — fungus, haze and coating damage in the long barrel — and confirm that focus and zoom actions are smooth and that the aperture blades are clean and dry.
