SOLD, a rare opportunity to acquire a very complete Rolleiflex TLR kit in fantastic condition with every desirable accessory one might want. The camera is quite remarkable, both operationally and cosmetically. It received a CLA by Harry Fleenor/Oceanside Camera Repair CLA in March 2016 (sticker present) and operates perfectly in all respects with an especially smooth shutter including at the 1/500 setting. Specifically, the following work was performed: “shutter overhaul $134.00, transport overhaul $134.00, repair focusing, re-align, collimate & adjust focus $149.00.” That’s $417 worth of service work, which has a lead time measured in months.

Further, the camera is in lovely condition, very clean, no dents or dings, both the taking and finding lens appear to be flawless. Screen is a grid screen. Only selling because I have no time to use it and it has just been sitting for several months waiting for action, other than exercising the shutter from time to time.

Included with this sale are all of the following. I imagine I could part all this out for more money, but I think it does justice to keep all of this together for the serious enthusiast.
  • Rolleiflex 3.5 MX EVS Automat Type 5 body with Zeiss Tessar 75mm f3.5 Lens, Serial Number 17218XX, 9/10 condition
  • Correct Rollei lens cap for body, just some light scratches on the mirror surfaces, 8/10
  • Correct Bay I lens shade with factory leather case, 8/10
  • Rolleiflex Rolleinar 1 Bay I close focus lens, light dust, with torn factory box, 9/10
  • Carl Zeiss Rollei-Mutar 1.5x teleconverter, doubles the focal length, with original leather case, perhaps never used, near mint, 9+/10
  • Rollei-H-1 (clear) -0 Bay I filter with factory leather case, 9/10
  • Rollei-gelb-mittel (yellow) -1.5 Bay I filter with factory leather case, 9/10
  • Rolleiflex quick release tripod mount, 9/10
  • Rollieflex pistol grip, 8/10
  • BEWI flash unit in original leather case with cover (may not be functioning), 9/10 cosmetics
  • Domke wide camera strap, 10/10
I’m asking $749 for the entire kit. Shipping will be at cost, available worldwide using buyer’s preferred method. Insurance is required for your protection and mine. Just for fun, I’ll toss in a dozen rolls of fresh/frozen Kodak and Ilford 100 and 400 speed B&W 120 film. Let me know if you have any questions and thanks for your interest.
