A Rolleiflex 3.5 T 6×6 twin‑lens reflex camera fitted with the Carl Zeiss Tessar 75mm f/3.5 taking lens. This example presents well and includes the original leather case. The meter is operational, but the plastic meter cover is broken, noted clearly for transparency. A solid user‑grade Rolleiflex 3.5 T with desirable Tessar optics.

Collectors Notes
The Rolleiflex 3.5 T is a lighter, more streamlined alternative to the flagship 3.5F, yet retains the classic Rolleiflex handling and Tessar optical character. The Tessar 75mm f/3.5 is a respected four‑element design known for sharp, contrasty rendering and a distinctive vintage look. Working‑meter examples remain desirable, and the broken meter cover is a common, easily sourced part for those wishing to restore the camera.
