The camera pictured (my camera) under "Field Model" is not a field model. The field model actually says "Filmo Field Model" (without "75") on the nameplate. Mine say "Filmo Model №75".
I'm also confused about all the different Filmo 75 models listed on the B&H page (75A, 75A4, 75C etc). As far as I know, there is only one Model 75, and the Field Model variation of it. Am I missing something somewhere?

Let me review this after I get back home. I am not sure where the indication is coming from, but there is an indication somewhere.
For example check this ones out. "A 4".

Interesting. I noticed a couple of those examples had different winding keys, yet they're all called "A4". I wonder if the color has something to do with it. They did come in three colors...

Date of manufacture has something to do with it

That's an interesting list - thanks for the link!
Apparently based on the "Ariel Cinematographica Register". Unfortunately the complete set costs $850...

Some of the posted price sources are bad, as they represent (long) ongoing asking prices, not actual sales. The sales history for this camera runs pretty consistently between $100 and $200. Two of the listings posted here are for the same camera, the second with a price reduction from $499 to $399. There is no sales history in the $400 range, but many are posted at that asking price and more. It should be apparent from the sales referenced here that those are fruitless efforts. Part of the problem may be that people are checking with Collectiblend and getting faulty information.

Hello Luvantique,
There are only two data points that is why the prices are high.
On Ebay prices are also often lower compared to official auctions. Approved collectiblend members can add their own sales data (including source) and increase the pricing accuracy.
Kind regards.

My point was that the data points appear to be coming from open, fixed price offers, not actual sales. Only completed sales are valid as price points. The open ebay listings should not be permitted in the sales history.

The two entries should be actual sales data
The 2006-11-18 B $365 sale is a recorded Westlicht sale
The 2003-02-28 B $199 sale was a recorded Photographica World price
(The icons refer to the actual source) WL= WestLicht; PW= Photographica World
Admittedly these data are very old and there are only 2 data points. There is a higher accuracy for camera models that have more and more recent sales data, it is therefore always prudent to check Ebay sales certainly for cameras that come up for sale quite often. Collectiblend prices are not always that accurate but at least provide some guidance in addition to other price sources. With time and if members are entering more data the accuracy should improve.
Best regards.
