Photographic equipment professionals: How much is Franka’s X-500 worth now?

The so-called Franka was one of the first low-quality point-and-shoot camera brands to enter China in the 1980s. However, because people’s requirements for photography were not high at that time, it made a fortune in China. Before the point-and-shoot camera, Chinese people had been using fully manual cameras, so people who were indifferent to photography often couldn't take good photos. Compared with the domestic cameras at that time, the Franka camera had a novel shape and was no longer silly, bulky and had many foreign characters. In addition, this kind of camera is marketed as a fool, using a simple program shutter (some models even have fixed shutters) and a built-in flash, allowing ordinary people to take "readable" photos. This is how it dominates the market - —This is also considered a contribution. Since then, point-and-shoot cameras have become popular, and domestically imported and good cameras have appeared one after another. This brand of camera has become less popular. I remember that when I was in middle school, Qingdao 6 and Ganguang Camera were fighting fiercely for the market. At that time, Franka was no longer working. The above is written based on memory and impression, I can’t remember the specific details.
