Tele-Rolleiflex with Rolleinar 0.35...

Tele-Rolleiflex uses simple platform as 2.8F and 3.5F, as such the range of physical movement with regard to focusing is the same. This limits the near focus capability and defeat the main purpose people using Tele-Rolleiflex, i.e. portraiture.

In order to take head and shoulder shot, a Rolleinar 0.35 has to be used to extend close focus capability.

Now that's just beautiful! This thread has become a visual delight! All these TLRs are gorgeous works of art in their own right! I must get my Rolleis out and shoot 'em!

Here's a shot of my Rolleicord III and roughly contemporary Zeiss Ikonta folder buddies, together with two recent shots from the Rollei.

Another TLR collection of mine...

My smallest TLR, Tessina, with 25mm f2.8 lens and built-in ground glass for focusing. Interchangeable brightline finder, eye-level finder, and magnify finder. as shown. Also with built-in clock-work film winder for automatic film advance. Use 135mm film loaded in special film canister.

Focusing from 1.1m to infinity, shutter speed from 1/2 to 1/500s plus B, aperture from f2.8 to f22. Flash sync for X, F and M.

OMG I want one... damn I hate this forum.. always gives me gas...

What is going to happen if one of your 124s starts breading with one of the 44s :confused::confused::confused:

A TLR in 645 format :D:eek:;):eek::D

OMG, I have to get some square condoms, and quick!

I Me Mine



I didn't realize how much I've spent during the first 10 rolls, until I did the math and fell fainted to the floor....

Hollywood Reflex: ca 1948, focuses, two shutter speeds + T, four f stops. The camera and an image:

Mamiya C220 w/chrome 105mm lens. It looks almost factory new and has become one of my favorite shooters.

here is my one... Rolleiflex automat, i got rid of the mamiya C330 a while ago and got this! So much lighter and a absolute joy to use.

No working Standards?
 

I gotta' get in on this thread!

Disassembled, shutter dunked, FS mirror & GG replaced. Shown with original hood, Y2, rollfilm & cutfilm back & original cases! Looks beat-up, shoots like new! I really like the negs from this camera!

what a beauty!

The "Beast"!

Here's my "new" 124g. I took a gamble on an inexpensive 124g on eBay... I got it and while cosmetically it was fine, but the shutter speeds were way off. So I sent it to Mark Hama for a CLA. Working fine now although I haven't had a chance to really put it to the test yet.

But the Rolleis here look hawt and I may upgrade to one of those sometime in the future.

My lovely Rolleiflex 2.8f Planar now with a bright new Beatie screen.

A friend brought these for me over the weekend. The seller refuse to ship these and luckily a friend who recently got a job in St. Louis was willing to pick them up. He came for a visit over the weekend and brought them to their new home. Unfortunately, I cannot find any 120 film for them in town. Looks like I will be doing some online film shopping soon.

Here're two quick pics.

I just bought a very beat-up Rolleicord 1A - any tips on information regarding cleaning and repairing?
Thanks!

True beauties, but that is exactly why I sold these kind of guys, couldn't easy find - and not anymore at normal prices - such film...pity

Hello everyone,
I just bought my first TLR - 1936 Rolleicord II ... i always dreamed about one and wandted to have it. Right now i'm almost done with my first film ;) It is amazing, and totaly something new - totaly different than 35mm rangefinders like Contax/Kiev ...

Okay, here's part of the family: My
two Tele Rolleiflexes, my Rolleiflex
3.5E, and my Voigtlander Superb.
Not pictured: the Rolleiflex 2.8C
(which shot the photograph), the
Rolleiflex T (acquired afterward),
and the Rolleiflex 2.8E (in my wife's
camera bag in North Carolina when
I shot this).

I guess you could say we're a Rolleifamily. :-)



Oh, and another self-portrait, shot
with the 2.8C a week or so ago:

Nice Mamiya Chris! I purchased a C330 from a fellow RFF and it is a very cool camera. In some ways I like it better than my Rollei 2.8f. The bellows is great to have - I just need a couple more lenses.

I just got my Luigis strap but won't show it to stop the GAS!

Thanks Way, they are an impressive camera. I find the handling a little awkward, learning where I can put my fingers and where I can't. And yes, a 55mm and a 180mm would round out the kit nicely! :)

Just arrived in the mail today!

I can't believe I haven't posted in this thread already - I had to go through again just to check!

Here is my Minoltaflex III. Unfortunately I can't find too much info on these cameras.

___________________

Saw this Mk I Rollei 2.8F c.1961 advertised couple of days ago as "Exc- " and decided to take a chance on it ... glad I did as it is a great user camera and apart from the depth of field indicator not functioning everything else is working fine ... shutter seems ok and lenses are not scratched. Was a bargain price too.








Looking forward to using it as soon as I can source a lens hood.

Cheers

Hi Terry,
Could you tell us more about Horst Wenzel's work and why you chose him to do the job? Do you live in the USA?

My new to me rolleiflex - $40 at a junk shop. $80 later on a CLA and it's in great shape.
