Q: I still have my Kodak 930 Kodamatic Instant Camera which I bought in 1970, which is still in its original box and little used. Has it yet become a collectors item?

Mr Y.

A. It's on its way -- but values are still modest for this camera of relatively recent vintage. Examples are currently fetching about £8 to £12. At present, collectors prefer slightly older cameras, though many of the cameras from the 1960s, '70s and '80s are becoming increasingly sought after if they are of unusual design or by top quality manufacturers such as Leica, Pentax and Nikon.
