Yesterday bought Rollei xf 35 for 2 euros.
I hope to get zeiss colors and sonnar bokeh.




P.S. behind Rollei is Konica Auto S3

Did you put a film in it?
I had one, yeats ago, good IQ, but the transport mechnisme gave up and was too plasticky to get it repaired.

Congrats!

That is a great little cam. Really good lens.
Just the lens mechanism can be a bit wobbly but don't be afraid that does not influence the results.

Fantastic price BTW!!

I have one too, a gift from my father to my mother ages ago, found it lying at the bottom of a drawer. I love it, the meter is incredibly precise, and the lens very sharp.

Mine had a problem with its rangefinder: one of the mirror came unglued, and I had to open it, reglue it, and realign the rangefinder. It's pretty easy to do, as on most rangefinders from the '70s. Enjoy it!
