| Photography has a new highlight - the Rollei 35 RF. A camera in a class of its own. There are few phenomenal technical concepts that never lose their validity. One of them is the classical rangefinder camera with high-end features. |
| Its success is based on its mechanical and optical perfection valued by true aficionados and accomplished photographers. Its brilliant viewfinder image, the compact design and precise distance measurement are traditional values explaining the popularity of this type of camera. Add to this the features of modern highperformance lenses that are certain to retain this appeal in the future. But at the bottom line it is a well-known and well-established marque that ultimately gives a rangefinder camera its treasured cult status. The Rollei 35 RF is an uncompromising embodiment of this trend. Rollei of Braunswick/Germany has historically been a pioneer of high-end 35 mm photography. The company proved with the introduction of its legendary Rollei 35 as early as 1966 that it can achieve great results in small cameras. Today, several decades later, its glorious past is projected into a promising future by an impressive new development. |
| The Rollei 35 RF is a robust camera designed by shutterbugs for shutterbugs. That's something you will feel the first time you look through its viewfinder and press its shutter release. Precise trigonometric focusing in a permanently brilliant viewfinder ensures pin-point focus even in critical lighting conditions. Its range-viewfinder is an optical tool of the utmost precision and guarantees a precise manual focusing. |

The laminar metal focal-plane shutter makes shutter release an aesthetic pleasure. A very exact sounding shutter release tells you that your picture has been recorded on film. A wide range of shutter speeds from a slow 1 second to a fast 1/2000s covers even demanding shooting situations. And - what is more - all this simply based on top-notch precision mechanics. When it comes to exposure metering, the Rollei 35 RF is a true child of its times: |
