Rollei Rolleiflex 2.8 D

The Rolleiflex 2.8 D is a medium-format twin-lens reflex camera that exposes 6x6cm frames on 120 roll film. It belongs to Rollei's post-war 2.8 series of TLRs introduced in the 1950s, positioned at the top of the Rolleiflex line above the f/3.5 models.

UK auction hammer prices for the 2.8 D have shown a wide spread, with recorded sales ranging from £360 to £3,600 — wholesale saleroom levels rather than dealer retail. With only two data points the median sits around £2,000, and as of today in 2026 what a 2.8 D is worth depends heavily on cosmetic condition, taking-lens clarity and whether the original case and meter are present. Clean, fully-functional examples sell for substantially more than user-grade bodies with haze, fungus or shutter faults.
