A classic twin lens reflex German made camera with the famous zeiss f/3.5 Tessar lens. The camera has a ten second self timer, MX flash sync, and auto- sensing film advance. The viewfinder is on the top of the camera, with the image flipped left to right, but by pressing on it's back it is transformed into sportsfinder mode, in which you look into the top- back and the image is flipped top to bottom. The camera has as a European tripod socket and so needs a socket converter to use a standard tripod. The ergonomics of the Rolleiflex TLR design are outstanding which makes it a joy to use. This is My medium format workhorse.
