Good evening.


I recently aquired Rolleiflex 3.5 (SN #1294x).


Now my question is whether a filter made for a Rolleichord will fit.


Thank you very much.

You need or use Bayonet 1. Lots on Ebay. There are also adapters to
use other sizes of filters. Try the Camera People in Bayfield CO. They
do phone calls and email etc.


I hate to contradict you, but if his serial-# is _really_ *between 12940
and 12949 (and not between 1294000 and 1294999), his Rollei was made
from 1928 to 1932 and has no filter bayonet.

I doubt this (these old cameras are collectors items...). If the serial
number is 1294xxx (1.000.000) his camera is a Automat with a f3.5 Tessar
(or Xenar) with Bay. I, the same as the 'cord.

you are right, Martin.

So that means i can use the rolleichord's filters?
