What it is
{"overview":"The Rolleiflex 2.8 Cut-Away is a sectioned demonstration version of Rollei's 6x6 medium-format twin-lens reflex camera, with portions of the body removed to expose the internal mechanism. Cut-away Rolleiflex bodies are scarce, and prices realised at auction can swing sharply with condition, completeness of the visible mechanism, and collector interest on the day.","buying_guide":"Because these are demonstration pieces, buyers should check that the exposed gear train, shutter, and mirror assembly are intact and that no internal components are missing or replaced.
