Condition Descriptions
Please read our Guarantee.
Mint
Factory's MINT cameras and lenses have been overhauled or serviced to precise, like-new or near-mint specifications. All our mint items are Factory Certified and guaranteed to work flawlessly.
Excellent
Factory items rated as EXCELLENT are thoroughly tested and inspected with task-specific equipment (shutter speed testers, for example) to ensure they function properly and accurately. Most have been serviced in-house. Any existing flaws will be documented, but they will not impact performance.
Good
All items with status GOOD are hand-tested, inspected, and confirmed to be in good working order. These items perform accurately, but may show signs of use and wear, i.e. they are not in perfect cosmetic condition. Flaws will be noted, but they will not affect typical use.
Fair
All items marked as FAIR may have flaws that could affect how smoothly an item operates (a rear door may stick when being opened, or a lens focus ring may turn roughly). But even if the camera or lens doesn’t perform like new, or isn't in prime cosmetic condition, it still functions properly.
Please note that since FAIR items did not meet our quality control standards, we do not guarantee their performance or condition. Items are sold as-is.
The Rollei SL35 is a classic 35mm SLR celebrated for its clean design, solid German engineering, and fully mechanical operation. This model comes paired with the sharp Rollei HFT 50mm f/1.8 lens, originally designed in collaboration with Zeiss.
Both the lens and the camera have been CLA’d by Factory Cameras. The body shows charismatic wear and patina, but functions like new.
Featuring Rollei’s HFT (High-Fidelity Transfer) multi-coating, the lens delivers excellent contrast, vivid color, and smooth bokeh, making it ideal for portraits, street, and everyday photography. With its bright viewfinder and precise manual controls, the SL35 offers a rewarding shooting experience for film enthusiasts and collectors alike. A beautifully built system with Zeiss-influenced optics and timeless appeal.
