Rollei Rolleiflex 2.8 GX Newton
The Rolleiflex 2.8 GX is a medium format twin-lens reflex camera taking 6x6cm frames on 120 roll film. It was produced by Rollei in the 1990s as a continuation of the 2.8-series TLR line, with built-in TTL metering and a Planar-type taking lens.
Auction data for the 2.8 GX is thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result of £1,100 from 2008 is on file, so a current value range cannot be drawn from this dataset alone. As of today, buyers researching what a 2.8 GX is worth or sells for in 2026 should treat that figure as a historical reference point only and seek further comparable hammer prices before judging the market.
