Default Rollei Twin-lens, non-functional


Rollei f3.5 twin-lens, wind not functional, meter
not functional. Has the chrome caps (fair condition)
and Rollei leather strap (fair condition). Best
offer.
Thanks.

Hi David; this is Hank Meier.
Which model Rollei is it and what do you think is a fair price?

Hi--

Haven't heard from you in quite a while - hope
you are doing well.
The Rollei does not have the interchangeable
VF, but does have the f3.5 Zeiss Planar and
that appears to be in good (clean) condition.
The advance works, but the backwind does
not stop or wind the shutter (except once
while I was playing with it). The body has
all parts and leatherette, though it does not
look nice. It also has the chrome lens caps
(with considerable marking) and a well-worn
but intact Rolleo leather strap. It has the meter
sensor and the gizmo on the side, but the latter
has been damaged. Focus is still good and
smooth, with no wobble of the lens board.
Probably worth fixing as a good "user", but
not for collecting...
Amount?
Dunno - make an offer, I guess...

More info:
The film loads properly, and the shutter then
winds properly and operates (slowest speeds
slow, 1-second iffy) until frame three, after
which the advance jams, though the shutter
can be wound at any time. It looks like
whatever is used to limit the advance properly
is malfunctioning - the rest seems generally OK.
