Subject: [Leica] Non-Leica, which Rollei is this
From: "Don Dory" <dorysrus@mindspring.com>

A friend recently brought by a pre-war Rollei.  It was acquired in Germany
just after the close of hostilities during the Allied occupation.  TLR with
a 75mm Zeiss Jena Tessar F3.5 uncoated lens.  The shutter speeds run from T
to 1/300.  Standard waistlevel finder with a magnifier that looks into a
mirrored panel on the front of the finder.  Apparently this camera takes 620
film as the spool inside is a 620 or that could be owner confusion.

This camera is really a treat as it is fully functional down to the lock on
the leather case.

Anyway, if any RUGgers can help, or if you need some unique feature
determined, my friend would like to know what her father carried back from
the war.
