I really don't want to sell this as it is an awesome slr 6x6 camera. The meter on it is one of the coolest meters I have used on any camera. However, I am going to Japan in January and really need some extra spending money and will use my leica monochrom and mamiya 7. I'm sure I will try to obtain one of these again in the future!

Rollei 6008 AF with the Rollei (zeiss) planar 80mm (lens is manual focus) . It is in excellent edition.

I have the original box for the body, hand grip, back two inserts, waist level finder, and the base for the loop finder ( I don't have the loop itself) and two batteries.

The original charger is included and I also I purchased a custom one and had both of the batteries re celled by Austin at LAflex, who is a really nice guy and a great resource on the Rollei system BTW. The new charger charges the batteries much faster, and takes up much less space.


Price for everything is $1350 shipped in the continental US, or if you happen to be in Japan and want this I can bring it there in January!

I will get some pictures up soon!
 
This is out of my reach, but good luck with your sale. Question: Is there a focus confirmation light in the body when using a manual focus lens? (as there is in the Nikon F4 and 801/8008?)
 
Yes there is. That's one of the coolest features of it. The light turns green when the focus hits and shows an arrow either direction when it's off.

I'm already feeling sad about the sale, really is a cool camera!
 
For now I'm going to take this back off the market. I don't use it enough but I've never had a cooler 6x6 so I'm going to try to hang on to it! Luckily I sold a couple of prints I had up at a coffee shop so I'm not as strapped for Japan! I'd rather sell prints then cameras!
