I am selling a Rolleicord, Xenar 75mm/3.5 model in quite nice cosmetic condition (beautiful really!). A little research indicates this was the Rolleicord IV - Model K3D from the early 50's

All functions appear to work except the slow speeds. The high speeds are fine. Speeds less than 1/10 seem erratic (B is OK).The taking lens looks clean and clear, and even does a good job undergoing the severe flashlight, which does reveal some dust specs. The viewing lens may have some haze, although the focus screen looks good. I have little doubt, that with considered use, this camera will deliver amazing results.

A leather case is included which has a tear in the leather and missing stitching, but it still helps protect the camera and looks attractive.

Price: $199 plus insured USPS shipping. I only accept payment by personal checks, money orders, or cash. No electronic payment of any kind please.
 
🛡️ Classifieds Safety Reminder: Please stay safe when buying and selling. Scams via hacked accounts are on the rise globally.

Best Practices: Always use a verified payment method with buyer protection (avoid "PayPal Friends & Family"). Services like Escrow.com are highly secure. Be suspicious of random unsolicited contact via Private Message. If you see suspicious behavior, please use the Report link on the post immediately.

The IV is a great camera, and built like a Sherman tank. From the photos, this seller's 'cord looks very good indeed, and with a little care in its use it will go on going on, making excellent images whether in color or (especially so) B&W), for many years. The "patina" in my B&W negatives from my 'cord (I own a Vb, the next-up model) is unique and very pleasant.

Price is also right. If I was living in 'Merka and had US$$ to play with instead of AUS$$, I would...

Best of luck with this sale. And best of buy to the purchaser.
 
one nice thing about the v is you can focus with your right hand if that’s appealing to you. flexes always on the left
