Rollei Rolleiflex 3.5 B

The Rolleiflex 3.5 B is a medium-format twin-lens reflex camera from Franke & Heidecke, shooting 6x6 frames on 120 roll film. Introduced in the mid-1950s with a Tessar-type taking lens of f/3.5 maximum aperture, it sat within Rollei's line of professional and advanced-amateur TLRs.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Rolleiflex 3.5 B have spanned roughly £120–£360, with a median around £280 across the small sample of sales logged. As of 2026, what a 3.5 B is worth today is strongly condition-led: clean, working bodies with clear glass and a functioning shutter tend to sell for the upper end of that range, while examples with haze, stiff focus, or cosmetic wear drop toward the lower figure.
