Rollei Sports Rolleiflex

The Sports Rolleiflex is a medium-format twin-lens reflex camera produced by the German manufacturer Rollei. It sits within the wider Rolleiflex TLR family that defined the brand's pre-war and post-war reputation, and is among the scarcer variants encountered today.

With only a single documented UK auction record to draw on, pricing for the Sports Rolleiflex is difficult to pin down: the one logged hammer result sold for £747 at Christie's in 2000, which is a wholesale saleroom figure rather than a retail price. As of 2026 today the model is sufficiently rare that its current value is best assessed on a case-by-case basis, with condition, completeness and provenance driving what it sells for.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Sports Rolleiflex worth?

Auction data is extremely limited; the only verified UK hammer record on file is £747, and that price reflects wholesale saleroom level rather than a dealer asking price.

How much does a Sports Rolleiflex sell for today?

Because so few examples appear at auction, there is no reliable current median price; collectors should treat each example individually and weigh condition heavily when judging value.

Is the Sports Rolleiflex a rare camera?

Yes — within the Rolleiflex TLR family it is one of the scarcer variants, which is reflected in the very thin sales history available.
