AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rollei 35S with new top

This is the most sought after model of the famous Rollei 35 family of camera's by shooters. It offers the top lens, the 5 element 2.8/40 Carl Zeiss Sonnar and has the CdS meter with the readout scale on the top of the camera. Very convenient. The Rollei 35 was delivered standard with a side mounted wrist strap, very nice, but people tended to swing the camera from their wrist and often unwittingly hit solid objects with it. Most of the 35's now have some sort of damage in the form of dings in the upper casing. This one had that too, until it received a brand new top. So it looks pretty much new now. New tops are becoming increasingly rare.
Technically all is well. Shutter runs fine on all speeds and the meter gives realistic values. Not tested with film.
