Rolleiflex 3003 Still Video Prototype (1994)

< Zurück

According to Rollei this Rolleiflex 3003 Still Video Prototype was built or designed around 1994 and was based on the Rolleiflex 3003 with with RBM Planar 1.8/50mm lens. It was never finished as a product and remained a prototype within the Rollei Museum for over two decades. For the serious collector it appears a bit peculiar why Rollei was tampering with still video technology in a period where every other manufacturer had already switched to digital. At a recent auction it sold for around $8,000.
