Rolleiflex 4.0 FT TLR Camera with 135mm f/4.0 Lens

The Rolleiflex 4.0 FT is ideal for classical portraiture. But it is also well-suited for tightly cropped framing in general photography.

The 135mm f/4 Tele-Xenar HFT by Schneider-Kreuznach is a completely new formula and excels by its outstanding performance. 

Its closest focusing distance is only 1.5 m – a considerable improvement over the 2.6 m in the Tele-Rolleiflex of the nineteen-sixties. In view of the larger diameter of the Tele-Xenar, the camera‘s bayonet filter mount is of size IV.

Note: The price shown is for the classic version supplied with black leather and chrome plating on the metal trim.  Cameras can be customized  with the buyer's choice of leather color and plating type (Chrome, Gold or Platinum) by selecting from the pull down options.  The Aurum and Green cameras shown in pictures are examples of what can be made. Custom orders with identity plates or custom serial numbers can not be returned or exchanged - only serviced.
