What model Rolleiflex is this?

[nbagno]

A local craigslist ad has this listed, I'm not knowledgeable enough with these to know the model. How does that price look?

Not worth more than $100-150 in perfect mechanical condition. Also, this uses the less common 127 film, unlike most other Rolleis that use 120 film.

For money like that you could own a Hasselblad.

For money like that you could own a Hasselblad.

Or you could own a Rolleiflex F in very good condition and not have any mirror blackout....

Just saying...

We both agree that the camera in post #1 is too expensive.

I think the seller is confused and thinks he has an F! I always liked the way the baby Rollei looked and would buy one now if 127 film wasn't such a pain to get.

And we agree that for that amount of money you can have one of the better cameras ever made!

WAY overpriced, and film is a problem - it takes 127. Great little camera though and it looks in beautiful condition.
For that money you can buy an Automat, have it overhauled, and have a few hundred dollars left over.

I spool my own 127 film; Ilford sells HP5+ 400 50ft. once a year

When I traded in my Mamiya C330 I wanted a Hasselblad or Rollei. There was not the selection nor the service for Rollei even though Rollei had some advantages, so I chose the Hasselblad and never looked back.

You're in SoCal. You have either Harry Fleenor of RolleiRepairs or Steve's Camera who are fantastic Rolleiflex service people!

I did not know that then.
