Rollei Rolleiflex 4.0 FW
The Rolleiflex 4.0 FW is a medium-format twin-lens reflex camera shooting 6x6 on 120 roll film, fitted with a wide-angle taking lens. It was produced in limited numbers in the 2000s as part of Rollei's late-run TLR series aimed at collectors and working medium-format photographers.
Sales data for the 4.0 FW is extremely thin: a single recorded UK auction hammer result of £3,600 from 2020 is the only data point available, so any sense of current value in 2026 has to be drawn from that one sale rather than a true range or median. Because hammer prices reflect wholesale saleroom levels rather than retail, clean dealer-listed examples typically sell for noticeably more than this figure, and condition, box, and accessories all materially affect what one is worth today.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher. How this figure is calculated.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Rolleiflex 4.0 FW worth today?
Auction data is sparse, but the one recorded UK hammer result sits at £3,600, so that figure is the best available reference point for what the camera sells for at saleroom level.
How much does a Rolleiflex 4.0 FW sell for at auction?
Only a single verified UK auction sale is on record, at £3,600 hammer in 2020, which is wholesale and excludes buyer's and seller's commission.
Why is the price of a Rolleiflex 4.0 FW so high?
It was produced in small numbers as a wide-angle TLR late in the format's life, so scarcity rather than volume drives its value in the used market.
