Description from the seller
Rollei B35 (Black) - Compact 35mm viewfinder camera with Triotar 3.5/40mm lens - 1970s
Offered is a beautiful and iconic Rollei B35 analog compact camera in the rarer black version. Introduced in the 1970s as a lighter and highly sought-after variant of the legendary Rollei 35 series. This specific model combines minimalist German ingenuity with a surprisingly compact size, ideal for street photography and everyday analog use.
The camera is equipped with a sharp Triotar 40mm f/3.5 lens (produced by Rollei under license from Carl Zeiss). This lens is known for its sharp performance in the center and a soft, characteristic vintage rendering in the corners. Additionally, the camera features a built-in selenium light meter that operates independently of batteries, so no batteries are required to shoot with it.
