At first, I thought you were considering SLR systems from both Hasselblad
and Rollei. TLR vs. SLR is a bit of an apples vs. oranges comparison. But,
I'll offer a few quick notions based on my experience with both the Rollei
TLR and SLR cameras.


Yes, infact I said that's a problem that I must solve on my own.
I'll use the camera, and I have to decide wich one is better for the
photos I want to take.


The Rollei 6000 series SLR cameras are very sophisticated units. Some
consider them to be the most advanced MF SLRs available. CUT
participate, too. Lenses and accessories are rare and pricey, even on
eBay.

Yes, they are too rare and too expensive. Why not buying Hasselblad
system? The sophisticated specs of the Rollei 600x aren't worth the
extra money, IMHO. At least for my idea of MF photography (mostly,
studio portraits)


There is a lot of hoopla around the Planar vs. Xenotar question. So much
that just asking can mark you as a troll! ;-)

NO!!!! I'm not a troll! I'm only a 23 years old student. I don't
know so much Rolleiflex types to have my belief in their ranking.
I would like only to hear to you comments! ;-)


Which is better suited to
you depends on many things, your typical subject matter, your particular
tastes, and so on. I don't believe that anyone will be able to give you a
useful answer as to which one will meet your needs better.

Ok. I'm italian, and in a photo related NG there was a skillfull
Rollei user. He wrote down a very useful review of any lenses.
Finally, he said that his best is probably the Xenotar 2.8, but he
suggests also to start with the Planar 3,5, because it gives a "more
general" result.
To tell the truth his reviews are very well written, and every
thoughts is well explained. I'm sorry, but my english isn't as good
to let you understand all the nuances of his speech.

Unfortunately,
because of the rarity of Rollei SLRs, it may be difficult to rent both
lenses to compare them yourself, but that is about the only way to get a
definitive answer on this question.

In Italy it's VERY difficult to rent photo equipment.


Meanwhile, more information and useful links can be found in web sites
dedicated to medium format. A quick Google search will get you started.

Ok.

Regards,

Neil

Thanks a lot for your answer (and not to considering me a troll ;-)).
