Description from the seller
Title
Rollei 35 “Made in Germany” – Carl Zeiss Tessar 40 mm f/3.5 – No. 3117807
Description
The Rollei 35 is an icon of analog photography. Designed by Heinz Waaske and introduced in 1966, it was at its release the smallest 24×36 camera in the world. It profoundly influenced the design of the compacts that followed.
This unit belongs to the first generation manufactured in Germany, before production was transferred to Singapore in 1973. This version is the most sought-after by collectors for the quality of its finish and the clarity of its viewfinder.
Specifications:
Carl Zeiss Tessar 40 mm f/3.5 lens, retractable
Distance-scale focusing
Compur shutter from 1/2 to 1/500 s + B setting
Embedded needle-type light meter, visible on the top plate
24×36 format, standard 35 mm film
Serial number: 3117807
The lot includes:
the Rollei 35 body;
the strap lug;
the case.
Condition
Good overall condition for a device over 50 years old.
One top-cover screw is missing. This defect is purely cosmetic and does not affect the proper functioning of the camera (see photo).

Optics: [clear, no fungus or veil / to be completed]
