Rollei Rolleiflex E2

The Rolleiflex E2 is a medium-format twin-lens reflex camera using 120 roll film, produced by Rollei in West Germany during the late 1950s. It was positioned within the Rolleiflex E-series of professional and advanced-amateur TLRs.

At UK auction, hammer prices for the Rolleiflex E2 have ranged from around £320 to £730, with only a handful of recorded results to draw on. A 2025 sale closed at £725 at saleroom level, suggesting that today a clean, working example sells for several hundred pounds, though with so few data points the value any given body fetches is highly condition-sensitive.
