Kallowflex K2

[Melvin J Bramley]

Kalloflex K2.
Has anyone actually tested this camera?
The original ad for it boasts of incredible resolution from the lens.
125 lpmm !!

Dubious figure no less but just how good is it?

I've had one for about 10 years. It's a keeper. I don't know what the resolution is, but it's plenty sharp. It's not quite a Rolleiflex, but it's close enough for most people, I'd think.

I guess the hype has made the price of Kalloflex way higher than a comparable Rolleiflex.

Are they really?! They were $100 cameras (in good working condition) when I found mine. If someone gave me a choice of a Rolleiflex 3.5e or a Kalloflex, price being equal, I'd definitely take the Rolleiflex.

I would not be surprised by the quality of the lens, I have a Kowa Sl66 and superSL, the 80mm is as good any 80mm MF lens I've used. The 50mm on the Kows SE 35mm fixed lens SLR is also quite good.
