Jag såg en auktion med en Rollei TLR Planar 3.5 E-2 Rolleiflex Penta Prism Finder. Priset är strax över 100$.Det verkar vara mycket billigt.
Beskrivning:
This camera is ready for use. The serial number, 2,480,684, makes the date of manufacture 1961 or 1962. This was one of the first series with the removable focusing hood. (Accessories are Bay II.) With the camera is included the Penta Prism right angle finder that was the reason for making the focusing hood removable.
The camera case shows evidence of use - which is OK. The camera itself is clean and without any battle scars. The case is missing one of those little levers that move the tab that lock the camera in the case. Not seen in these photos is the PSA (Photographic Society of America) decal on the back of the case. This was placed there by the previous (original) owner of this camera. No wear is evident on the case for the Penta Prism finder. The leather on that case is starting to become dry, though.
Camera optics are fine, as are the optics of the Penta Prism finder. Focus mechanism is smooth. The camera went through a CLA in 1975 and the shutter speeds have been consistent since that time. This work also fixed what seemed to be a problem at the time with X (electronic flash) sync.
At least part of the flash attachment is home brew – the portion with the hot shoe adapter. This is the nicest flash adapter for the Rollei that I have used.
Also included are a few Bay II accessories. There is the lens shade, a middle yellow filter and an H1 (UV) filter. These are all in their own little leather cases hanging from the neck strap. As can be seen in the photos, the lens cap is the folding chrome style.
There’s also the leather focusing hood extension, portions of which can be seen in some of these photos. That is in fine shape. I’m not sure that this was one of the accessories acquired with this camera or was something that came from a set for another Rollei.
Also with this Rollei are a few pamphlets in fair shape. I don’t know if they were part of the original camera documentation. They are from the right era. Since the photographs were taken, I uncovered some other Rollei printed material that will be included with this camera
