i really need. but i am not sure my camera is actually a 3.5E or
3.5C. i need your help.

some info of the camera,

1, the serial number is 1748514


With that serial # it is 3.5E

i hope you're right. but it seems the web page you refered don't list
3.5E at all,


??????????? It's the fifth one listed.
________________

it might be possible that the serial number range it
listed for 3.5E actually covered 3.5C also. check this page:
http://home.worldonline.dk/rongsted/Rolleisn.htm, you will find,

Start End S/N Prochnow Parker Evans
...
1.740.000 1.787.999 Rolleiflex 3,5 C Rolleiflex 3.5 E Rolleiflex 3.5
E (type 1)

but i dont understand what the 'Prochnow', 'Parker' and 'Evans' mean
respectively.


They are the sources (men's names) from which the author of the page
gathered his info. Note that two of the three agree that yours is 3.5E. If
you are in doubt, email Rollei...bet they'd know
