Up for grabs -- a nice condition 1970's Rollei 35XF rangefinder. It is a 'user' camera, not mint, but still in good shape.
Rangefinder has good contrast, alignment is good. Light meter works, but is designed for mercury batteries. Currently it is loaded with alkaline batteries, so the ISO will be a little off.
The camera works fine, shutter speeds seem accurate (haven't tested them) -- the test rolls I have run through this camera came out great.
Cosmetically, there is some minor brassing on the film advance lever. Also, some very minor small scratches here and there, but you have to look closely to really see them. I'm just saying this out of full disclosure.
This camera is not as legendary as the other Rollei cameras of the same era, but the Sonnar 2.3/40 lens is quite nice. I just don't need this camera -- I don't use it enough.
The camera comes with strap, lens cap, and original soft case.
I am asking $40 USD firm + shipping. Paypal only.
I will be happy to answer any questions.
Thanks!
