Rollei Wide-Angle Rolleiflex

The Wide-Angle Rolleiflex is a twin-lens reflex medium-format film camera made by Rollei, using 120 roll film in the 6x6 square format. It was produced as a specialist variant of the Rolleiflex TLR line, fitted with a wider-than-standard taking and viewing lens pairing for architectural and interior work, which kept production numbers low compared with the standard Rolleiflex models.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Wide-Angle Rolleiflex have ranged from around £830 to £2,200, with a median near £1,800 — firmly in the collector tier of TLR values as of today in 2026. Condition and completeness drive the spread: clean, working examples with matched hoods and caps sell for considerably more than well-used bodies, and this scarce variant commands a premium over standard Rolleiflex TLRs at saleroom level.
