COLLECTIBLE IN LIKE-NEW CONDITION!

Beautifully preserved and incredibly rare in its condition, this Rolleiflex 2.8F Type 1 comes with the rare for the 2.8F type 1 Schneider Kreuznach Xenotar 80/2.8 lens!
Not many Type 1 models were ever delivered with this lens configuration.

All Rolleiflex 2.8 versions share excellent optics and optical performance.
However, both Schneider and Zeiss continuously improved coatings and lens characteristics with each new batch generation.
In my opinion, this particular lens falls squarely between the more modern "White Face" version and the very early 2.8C/2.8D/2.8E generations. It boasts enhanced, well-balanced contrast compared to earlier versions, delivers a seamless transition from dark to bright tones, offers impressive resolution at f/2.8, creates swirly bokeh, and provides remarkable three-dimensional depth ("3D pop").

For collectors: The Rolleiflex 2.8F Type 1, especially when paired with the Schneider Kreuznach Xenotar 80/2.8 lens, is exceptionally difficult to find in pristine or even good condition. Many lenses from earlier generations suffer today from significant coating deterioration, lens separation, or extreme haze.


Please note that the photos show the current condition of the camera (and it is truly great for its age; each camera was personally preselected by me), but the final condition of the camera will be improved during the restoration process, which gives the restored camera a fresh appearance and operating feeling!

Both lenses of the camera are in excellent condition for their age; every lens (viewing and taking) undergoes cleaning during the restoration process.

A new PRO ultra-bright screen will be installed during the rebuild process


!!!IMPORTANT!!!

The camera will be completely rebuilt and re-adjusted!
The amount of work is greater than the usual "CLA":

I check the entire camera and disassemble it completely, returning all internal details and settings to the factory state or even improving the factory settings with modern instruments, testing all functions, cleaning, updating, lubricating, and readjusting the whole camera. Therefore, all functions will work precisely and even smoother than out of the factory; the focus is set to the film plane and also tested on a special stand for excellent focusing accuracy.
