description: Cleaned, Lubricated & Adjusted. Ready for immediate use If you’re familiar with the Rolleiflex and Rolleicord cameras you’ll know that they’re considered a cult classic by many fans. It’s a 6x6 TLR camera that uses 120 roll film. It was and is a popular the camera and even today it’s often mentioned on websites as an excellent way to get into medium format photography. It’s a wonderful design that just like the Leica, inspired countless copies over numerous decades. The camera in this listing is the real deal and about as good as it gets.

The quality Compur shutter works well and all speeds (B & 1 Sec-1/500th) are appropriate. The slow speeds buzz along smoothly and the faster ones are clean and snappy. Focusing is smooth and accurate, the mirror is very clean and the image on the matt glass is bright and easy to see. The coated Schneider Xenar 3.5/75mm lens is in exceptionally fine condition. The Schneider Xenar and the Tessar share a near identical four element design and performance for both of these lenses is outstanding. The lens is clean and clear. There are no scratches, no cleaning marks and it’s capable of producing very lovely photos with modern color and black & white films. All in all, a very enjoyable vintage camera. Load it with your favorite film and keep it handy for that perfect shot you’ve been looking for.
