Rollei 2.8D
The Rollei 2.8D is a medium-format twin-lens reflex camera taking 6x6cm images on 120 roll film, part of the Rolleiflex line of TLRs. It sits among the f/2.8 versions of the Rolleiflex range produced in the late 1950s, aimed at professional and serious amateur use.
Evidence on what a Rollei 2.8D is worth in 2026 is thin: a single UK auction hammer result of £340 from November 2025 is the only data point available, so a meaningful price range cannot yet be drawn. As a guide to value at saleroom level, that figure reflects wholesale hammer pricing before buyer's premium, and clean, working examples of f/2.8 Rolleiflex bodies typically sell for more than rougher ones.
