Hi, all does anyone know what a Fuji GW690iii (the last and final version 6x9) camera cost when it was new?
Cheers,
Mike

There are issues of Photography Magazines that can be found uploaded in Google Books.
There are lots of Popular Photography issues available from 1950 until fairly recently and I recall searching through them. IIRC the price for one GW690III was around $1200 in 1994 or so.

I can confirm. I remember seeing them on B&H ads at that price range before they were discontinued. $1100-1350 or so.
