Rollei 35S silver

The Rollei 35S is a compact 35mm viewfinder camera from the Rollei 35 series, a line introduced in the late 1960s and produced in several variants through the 1970s and 1980s. The 'S' designation denotes the version fitted with a Sonnar lens, and the silver finish is the standard chrome-finished body variant.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Rollei 35S in silver have ranged from roughly £340 to £800, with a median around £450 — these are saleroom wholesale figures and exclude buyer's and seller's commission. Today the value of a 35S silver is strongly condition-sensitive: clean, fully working examples sell for noticeably more than cosmetically tired or untested bodies. Because only a small number of hammer results underpin this range, individual sales in 2026 can sit well inside or outside it depending on condition and completeness.
