Rollei Rolleiflex 3.5 Automat Carl Zeiss Jena Tessa 75mm f/3.5 (Model X) | U8

The Rolleiflex 3.5 Automat Model X is one of the most respected twin-lens reflex cameras produced by Rollei during the post-war era. Its Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 75mm f/3.5 lens is renowned for producing exceptionally sharp negatives with rich contrast and classic medium-format character. The innovative Automat film transport system made loading 120 film significantly faster and more reliable than many competing cameras of its time. Its quiet leaf shutter and compact TLR design make it well suited for portraits, street photography, and travel. Built almost entirely from metal, the camera has proven capable of remaining fully functional more than seventy years after its introduction when properly maintained. Today, the Rolleiflex 3.5 Automat Model X remains a favorite among collectors and film photographers seeking one of the finest classic 6×6 medium-format cameras ever made.
