Adam Haldane-Duncan, 2nd Earl of Camperdown (25 March 1812 – 30 January 1867), styled Viscount Duncan between 1831 and 1859, was a British nobleman and politician.

Born in Edinburgh, the Hon. Adam Duncan was educated at Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge. He first entered parliament as a member for Southampton in 1837, which seat he held until 1841 when he exchanged it for Bath. He was briefly out of parliament between 1852 and 1854, when he was returned again, this time for Forfarshire. He held this seat until he was elevated to the House of Lords in 1859 on the death of his father, the first earl. His children included his heir Robert, George and Julia who was a courtier and notable artist.

Lord Camperdown died on 30 January 1867 at the age of 54.
