I recently acquired my first Rolleiflex from an online seller. After receiving the camera I found a bit of metal damage in one corner.
There is a sticker inside the camera that indicates it was repaired by Graf's Camera Repair, Los Angeles in 1977.
With some trepidation, I used an old black and white film (exp. date: 1981) sitting in my desk drawer to test the camera.
My conclusion is that the camera seems fine, with a battle scar from its former life.
Here are my favorites from my test roll.
