It's a film camera!

It is a grim, wind swept, rain filled, miserable day and no outside blips leap up at me.

So here is a Rollei 35.

A 35 mm film camera. It is a fine example of a camera that was much sought after in its day and as a classic for collectors. Not so these days.

Built in Germany and in classic black with the Carl Zeiss 1:3,5 f=40 mm Tessar lens.

If you have not nodded off at this stage, you will have seen the flash but noticed that there is no shoe mount on the top of the camera. That is because the shoe is on the underside!

And now back to blocked drains, falling branches, lifting roof tiles, leaking conservatory and all pear trees blown over, scattering partridges everywhere.

Bah Humbug!
