Rollei Rolleiflex Old Standard

The Rolleiflex Old Standard is a medium-format twin-lens reflex camera produced by Franke & Heidecke in Germany during the 1930s. It uses 120 roll film to produce 6x6cm negatives and sits among the earlier pre-war Rolleiflex models that established the TLR layout Rollei became known for.

At recent UK auction, the Rolleiflex Old Standard has sold for roughly £25 to £90 at hammer, with a median around £63 across the records to hand; these are wholesale saleroom results before buyer's premium rather than retail asking prices. An exceptional 2020 result of £335 shows what a clean, working example can fetch, but in 2024–2026 most examples have changed hands at the lower end. As of today the camera is worth more as a working user or display piece than as a high-value collectable, and condition is the main driver of price.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Rolleiflex Old Standard worth today?

Based on UK auction hammer prices, a Rolleiflex Old Standard is typically worth £25 to £90, with cleaner working examples occasionally reaching several hundred pounds.

How much does a Rolleiflex Old Standard sell for at UK auction?

Recent hammer prices range from £25 to £90, with a median around £63; an outlier sale at £335 in 2020 shows the ceiling for an unusually clean example.

Is the Rolleiflex Old Standard a good user camera?

It can be, provided the shutter, lenses and film transport have been serviced; the value of the camera is low enough that a full CLA often costs more than the body itself.

Why do prices vary so much?

Condition drives the price — shutter accuracy, lens clarity and cosmetic wear on the leatherette and chrome separate a £25 shelf-queen from a £300 working example.
