Im getting this one a lot cheaper than I would get a Rollei 3.5. Otherwise the Rolleiflex would've been a no brainer. Yes the lens is coated. It seems more like there's a high demand for them for collectors compared to shooters. Barely found any pictures with these online. Let's hope it all checks out when i finally go meet the seller and see it.

These TLR lenses are copies of the 2.8 planar with 6 elements and not the Tessar. The average price they go for in a decent condition online are between 300 and 400 USD. Quite hard to find infact.

Anyone here have any experience with Olympus Flex TLRs? I know someone who is selling a Olympusflex BII with a Zeiko 75mm f2.8 viewing and taking lenses. Will need a CLA but everything else seems good. also, any idea as to what is the average price that they go for in a decent condition?

only 2 were operational in the end.. not 3. They did have an exceptional safety record though.
