What it is
{"overview":"The Rollei 35 is a compact 35mm viewfinder camera introduced by Rollei in 1966. It uses scale (zone) focusing and a collapsible lens to keep the body unusually small for a full-frame 35mm film format. What a given camera is worth today hinges heavily on meter function, lens clarity, and whether the collapsible tube operates smoothly.","buying_guide":"Common faults include dead or inaccurate meters, haze or separation in the lens elements, and sticky slow shutter speeds. Inspect the collapsible lens barrel for smooth extension and locking, check the focus and aperture rings for clean movement, and confirm the film advance, rewind, and frame counter all work. Prices are hammer figures and exclude commission."},{"q":"What affects the price of a Rollei 35?","a":"Meter function, lens condition, smoothness of the collapsible lens mechanism, and which variant the camera is are the main drivers of value.
