Rollei Mini Digital Camera

In this world of digital everything, its a sweet pleasure to take out a Rollei TLR or Pentax 645 and run a roll of Provia 100F through it. Life slows down as you compose each shot rather than do the digital spray and pray. Each shot matters and viewing the results through a good loupe is a real joy!

So far, this has been a great lens. I'm using it with my Blackmagic Ursa Mini 4K digital film camera (shooting mostly video) and the results are really good. Very happy. Nice look without the super high pricing that you see with other lens companies. Not sure how they do it - but the images are looking great!

I purchased this so I can transfer photos from my digital camera to my Mac Mini. It works perfectly and performance is great.

I use it as a back up for my digital camera.

I previously bought the Fotodiox Pro Rollei 35 to MFT lens mount adapter, to adapt my Rollei macro and telephoto lenses to my Panasonic Lumix GX7. It worked fine with the lenses, but would NOT fit my Rollei bellows unit or extension tubes. Logically, if it fits the lenses, it should fit the bellows and tubes, but it doesn't. I have no idea why, nor did B&H or Fotodiox when I contacted them with the problem. I then asked B&H if the Metabones unit might be more accessory-compatible, but they had no idea, which was perfectly understandable considering the oddball nature of the problem. In the spirit of you never know 'till you try, I went ahead and ordered the Metabones unit. I considered returning the Fotodiox adapter,but, not knowing if the Metabones adapter would be any better, I reluctantly decided to keep the Fotodiox one. The happy ending is that the Metabones adapter works perfectly with every lens and accessory (I still don't what the difference is, but it's real). It also has a (removeable) Arca-Swiss-type quick-release foot that eliminates a lot of strain on the MFT camera's lens mount from the larger, heavier Rollei lenses, especially the long telephotos. The only improvement I could suggest would be to make the foot's stalk about a quarter-inch taller. That would allow clearance for any quick-release camera plate that you might have mounted on your camera (I use an Arca-type L-bracket on my GX7). Anyway, problem solved, great product!

its not a traditional rollei camera, its different in a rather good way. first, its not as sturdy as the old rollei, but it is much lighter and more portable. dont misunderstand, its not flimsy, its just like a modern day, easy to carry around camera. second, the view plane is slightly less bright when compares to an old rollei (3.5F), but then considering this camera is 5.6F, so the brightness is quite good actually.  a little incident happened while i was using this camera, the pictures come out all overexposed, completely white. i thought the camera has problem. I email Mint (the current manufacturer of this new rollei camera), they are nice and patient and guided me through, turn out, I turned the camera into B mode and didnt notice it. overall, this is a good camera and worth buying.

I love this camera it is the best of the best for a digital camera.

Rollei's infrared works fine, but do not forget to have your infrared filter!
