Goodbye Zone Focus. Hello Autofocus.

As good as the classic Rollei 35 was, it carried a significant drawback, making it one of the most iconic, yet difficult to use pieces of equipment in modern history. Manual zone focusing.

Now equipped with state-of-the-art LIDAR technology, the Rollei 35AF enables precise focusing from 70cm up to infinity. This eliminates the frustration of guessing the ​w​rong focus.

The Rollei 35AF's autofocus system is much faster, much easier, and much more user-friendly. No more manual zone focusing - simply point, focus, and capture your perfect shot every time.

Relive the Retro Dream with Top-notch Optics.

The evolution of optics has traversed remarkable paths since the birth of the Rollei 35 legend in the 1960s. When undertaking the task of remastering this extraordinary camera, the foremost endeavor was clear – refining its very essence: The lens.

The Rollei 35AF features a top-notch 5-element glass lens, offering exceptional image quality and clarity. This precision-engineered lens harnesses the latest advancements in optical technology to deliver the retro charm and performance demanded by discerning photographers.

The Best of Both Worlds: Manual to Auto Exposure All-in-one.

Back in the days when film cameras were the only option to freeze a moment, understanding shutter speed and aperture was considered a prerequisite for owning a Rollei 35. Not anymore.

Today, the Rollei 35AF liberates the photographic eye by reducing the technical requirements of operating the camera by including Auto mode. Or if you choose to taste the sweet handling of the original Rollei 35 as it was in the 1960s, simply utilize its Manual settings.

Whether you want convenience or classic handling, the Rollei 35AF has you covered.
