Rolllei Rolleiflex DBP DBGM with Plannar 80mm f/2.8 Lens. The "Rolleiflex" name is most commonly used to refer to Rollei's premier line of medium format twin lens reflex (TLR) cameras.The Rolleiflex TLR film cameras were known for their exceptional build quality, compact size, modest weight, superior optics, durability, simplicity, reliable mechanics, and bright viewfinders.
The highly regarded Zeiss Planar 80mm f2.8 lens is state of the art optics.
The mechanical wind mechanism was robust and clever, making film loading semi-automatic and quick. This mechanism started the exposure counter automatically, auto-spaced the 12 exposures, and tensioned the shutter; all with less than one full turn of the film advance crank. This makes the Rolleiflex model cameras very sought-after for shooting fast-paced action, such as street photography.
