Rollei Rolleiflex 3.5 E2
The Rolleiflex 3.5 E2 is a German-made 6x6 medium-format twin-lens reflex camera from the late 1950s, sitting in the Rolleiflex E series between the original 3.5 E and the later 3.5 F. It was positioned as a professional-grade roll-film TLR when new, fitted with a fixed taking lens of f/3.5 maximum aperture.
Sales evidence for the 3.5 E2 is thin: a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £248 from 2020 is the only data point available, so any sense of what the camera is worth today rests on that lone figure rather than a true range. Prices at saleroom level are highly condition-sensitive, and clean, fully working examples with a clear taking-lens generally sell for more than tired bodies, but a meaningful current median or price band cannot be quoted from this dataset alone.
