For sale is a beautiful Rolleiflex 3.5F Type 3, likely from the early 1960s. This one has the 6-element Zeiss Planar taking lens and is also fitted with a Maxwell bright focusing screen, a $300 upgrade. It had an overhaul from Harry Fleenor in late 2019, and all functions work perfectly with the exception of the self timer. All functions are smooth, and even the light meter is reasonably accurate.
Both taking and viewing lenses are clean and clear, free of haze, fungus, cleaning marks or other blemishes. Cosmetically the camera is in excellent, very clean condition with just one scuff on the corner of the back. The latter does not in any way affect the fit of the back, which is perfect. All leather is intact.
Included with the camera are an original hinged lens cap, the light meter diffuser and the Rollei leather case. The case is in very nice condition with all stitching intact.
I hate to let this Rollei go, as they are hard to find in this condition, but I am not shooting enough film these days and need the funds for other projects.
I will sell this package for $1195 shipped in the CONUSA. PayPal preferred, and I will cover the fees. I will ship abroad, but you will have to cover the cost of trackable, insured shipping.
For the buyer of the camera, I can offer the following accessories:
** Bay II lens hood, yellow and red Bay II filters in a nice leather case. Very good condition, $95
** Bay II Rolleipol polarizing filter with leather case. Excellent condition, $45
** Gorgeous Brofetta leather strap with scissors clips. Near new, $60
These accessories will not be sold separately until the camera sells.
Update: The Rolleiflex is sold. The accessories are still available, shipped at the above prices.
Thanks for looking.
