1. An excellent condition 2.8F that looks great with near perfect leatherette, paint trim and chrome accents, no dings or dents. There is some paint loss on the edge of the WLF when open. The camera functions nicely with smooth focusing, accurate shutter speeds, easy operating control wheels, Clean and clear finder (gridded with split prism rangefinder center). Winder moves nicely with no issues. Inside camera looks excellent. The meter works great and is within 1/2 stop accuracy of all my meters. I can't find any cleaning marks, fungus, or haze on either lens but I won't call them mint just because I've sold to some people who have better eyes and magnifiers and lights than I have and I don't want this returned, getting too old to go through the shipping>return>re-list>re-ship, etc. game. Take a good look at the pictures, the camera looks great, and they are part of the description. Asking $1500.00 shipped in USA. Will use paypal fee-less so if that's not OK with you, very sorry. THIS HAS SOLD!

2. Here is a Rolleiflex 3.5F White face model in very good condition with lots of signs of use and a few issues but a great picture taker, nonetheless. Numerous cosmetic issues, please see the pictures. The WLF hood does not close all the way, having had some light damage to the thin metal of the folding walls in the past, it opens and closes OK but sometimes needs a tiny touch on one side to flatten the side out when opening. The shutter seems accurate at all speeds, the controls move easily. The winder moves easily, no problem there. The viewing screen has some marks but the view is bright and clear overall, the center is a magnifier on the view screen. Focusing is smooth. The meter works well, it is also accurate compared to my other meters. The viewing lens looks great, no issues. The taking lens has no fungus or haze, nice an clear but there are a number of cleaning marks on the front element. They can be seen with the naked eye but they are still not enough to effect the pictures. They are not numerous enough to create any cloudiness appearance. Since this is a white face, it has the best and latest lens that Rolleiflex put into the 3.5 cameras, the 6 element Xenotar. Will give striking photos. I paid $1100 for this a couple years ago and I don't think I overpaid for what I got so asking $980 now seems like a good deal. Price includes shipping in USA. Request fee-less paypal, don't want to have returns, this is properly described, in fact, you will be pleased that it's nicer than the description. Thanks, Bob Nancarrow in Michigan.
