Rollei Rolleiflex SL 35

The Rolleiflex SL 35 is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera introduced by Rollei in 1970, representing the company's first entry into the 35mm SLR market after decades of twin-lens reflex production. It was positioned as a compact, mid-market manual-focus SLR with through-the-lens metering and interchangeable lenses on the Rollei QBM bayonet mount.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Rolleiflex SL 35 have ranged from around £20 to £130, with a median closer to £62 across the last few years of saleroom results. In early 2026, clean bodies sold for £62 and £69, suggesting today's typical value sits in the £60–£70 band, though a particularly tidy 2024 example fetched £130 at auction, showing how much condition and included lens drive what the camera sells for.
