Hanimex Holiday II


From the same 'family' as the Hiyoca, and perhaps (?) it is the model
immediately before the C35 series, as this has a f3.5 lens, and a button
rewind. I think that this model was for the UK, but I need further research.
In most other ways, it is the Hiyoca/Hanimex C35.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Michael, to.answer your question in the broadest terms - these "plain janes" are worth what the market will bear at auction. You can check eBay for past results. I'd imagine that a collector who wants one would probably pay 50-80 pounds for one in great condition. If the body is spotted with rust, or the shutter sticks, or the rangefinder needs work, expect quite a lot less. I have seen the swing ... 20 to 110 pounds. The top end had leather ER case, box, warranty card, and great condition.

In NZ Hanimex had the nickname Ham&Eggs.

André mentioned 'something missing'. However, the camera is complete - the
constant rubbing of the index finger when 'shooting' has caused 'brassing',
and the paint is almost worn away. The same has happened at the other side.
