New (to me) Rolleiflex (Opinions)

Postby Esprit S4 » Thu Oct 10, 2013 10:22 am

Guys, I just bought a Rolleiflex EVS Automat. Can you tell me anything about them? How is it as far as Rolleiflexs go, etc... Says it's a Xenar Type 1????
Thanks

A very fine picture taking machine. I've had mine for more than 20 years and wouldn't trade it for any thing else. The Xenar lens from f8 down is as good as any (unless perhaps if your passion is photographing lens resolution charts and making 36x36 inch prints). You will enjoy your camera more however if you invest in a good bright focus/composing screen like the Maxwell. Best of luck and expect a lifetime of great pictures.
