      To choosea Rollei is to choosethe finest camerain the world. The Rollei is really two cameras.
       One, taking the picture and the secondgiving you a preview of this picture - in full size - right
      way up - in full colour, which is observedbefore and during exposure.
         Whether you are a beginner or professional, Rollei is the camera for you and its system
       ensuresyour getting the best possible picture.
        The large brilliant focusing screenmakes you the complete master of picture composition.
      As this picture is in full colour, one can selectwith easethe correct colour distribution. A turn
         of the focusing knob brings the picture dead sharp and as an added check, a large magnifier
          is housed in the focusing hood to guaranteeevery time complete sharpness.The brightness of
        the image on the focusing screenis always something of a revelation to the new owner of a
         Rollei.
      Wh i c h e ve r mo d e l o f
        Rollei you  select, you
       always see exactly what
       you  are  taking and by
          skilful  positioning of the
        c o n t r o l s ,   t h e w h o l e
        attention can be given to
        obtaining the best possible
       composition.Now there is
       an  entirely new Rollei -
        the Rollei-Magic.
         This is the only 21 in. x
       2 l    i n . c a m e r a w h i c h
        automatically gives correct
       exposureand a preview of
       your picture - in  full  size
           - and in  full colour. The
       exposure is automatically
        set and a perfectly exposed
      negative is guaranteed
       every time.

COLOURPHOTOGBA
   WITI|A





Successfulcolour photography  is probably the most satisfying type of work which any photographer
can do, whether he is a Professional satisfying the requirements of his clients, a keen amateur making
picturesfor exhibition, or an ardent snapshotterpleasinghimself and his friends. Colour photography
with a Rolleiflex is by far the easiest method of achieving this successbecause the technical problems
of camera handling are reduced to the minimum and the finished picture can be visualized accurately
thanks to the glowing image in  full colour, visible on the Rollei screen. Whichever model of the
Rollei may be used, the technical problems of exposure, framing and focusing are reduced to the
minimum and the photographer is free to concentrate on aesthetic problems - the expression in                                                     'exact                                                 moment'  in  illustrative photography,portraiture, the composition in landscape, or  the
Furthermore, the Rollei screen gives an uninterrupted view before, during and after the picture has
been taken. There is no sudden darkness, not even a split second of time when the picture is not
fully and clearly presented. Thanks to the twin-lens system of parallax correction and accurate
focusing,there is never a morhent's doubt of what is in the picture area, which colours are adjacent
to other colours, which might give a colour cast or a colour clash.
Films Available
Colour film is, of course, available for the Rollei as reversal material giving colour transparencies
or negativematerial giving colour prints. Both are readily obtainable in the 120 roll film size and can
be used for the highest quality colour reproduction from the full 2|  in. x 2t  in. format, or with
somemodelsoftheRollei,intheeconomicall6-onorSuperSlide(lf  in. x   lf in.)size.Foramateur
proiection use, the latter size gives a very economical method of obtaining sixteen pictures on a
roll of 120 film which can be mounted and projected in a miniature slide projector,  still giving a very
large picture area and therefore greatly increased picture quality when compared to the 24 x 36 mm,
miniature size. The projected 2l  in. x 2+ in. transparency is of such amazing quality  that even
enormous screens can be used and the picturg  still shows a fantastic wealth of detail and a rare
cotour quality unobtainable by other means.
  In the realm of colour prints, both the 2{ in. x  2l  in. and the  lf  in. x  1f in. size formats will
give a very much finer quality print than their little 35 mm. brothers and becauseof the use of
backing paper  with  the  film,  the negatives
are produced scratch and blemish  free and
again permit  of much  greater enlargement
and better detail and quality, thanks  to the
very much larger original negative area.
    If,  however, the 35 mm.  size is required
occasionally  or   for  special  purposes,  the
Rolleikin cine film attachments are available
at low cost for most Rollei models. The same
superiority and advantages are available  to
the worker in this size and the brilliant screen
with  accurate focusing and   full  parallax
correction right down to the closest distance
of 9i in. is possible,when using the Rolleinar
close-up attachments.

Using Colourwith the Rollei
The first trap into which the beginner in colour is likely to fall is that of trying to use too much colour
and of being aware only of scenes that show great splashes of vivid hues. Flower borders, summer
dressesand bathing belles on the beach are among the things to attract him in the first flush of the
novelty of colour. Try these by  all means to satisfy yourself that the process works, but subjects
having simpler colours and quiet tones with a predominance of grey and the occasional small aicent
 of a strong colour will be found to be much more effective and pleasing. As in monochrome work,
oomposition in line can be helpful in holding your pictures together, but colour composition  is even
more important. Of the latter,  little more than the maiir pointers can be given as, in  full,   it  is a
very lengthy subject and the world of art is already well supplied with treatises on this subject which
should be studied for further information.
    It  is, therefore, impossible to pursue this subject in  detail,  but.it   is sufficient to say that the
arrangement of the colours in your picture should be harmonious. Two or more brilliant  oi saturated
colours are rarely satisfactory, except when one is a small accent. For instance, a large patch ofblue
next to one of yellow or similar patches of red and green will produce too much colour contrast and
may cause conflict and disunity in your picture. This condition  will be particularly unpleasant if both
colours are fully saturated and of equal area. The conflict  will be at its worst (we say 'the colours
clash') when two adjacent colours are not complementary,  like red and magenta or blue and
blue-green.
  The warmer colours, such as red, orange and yellow, are best used for foreground subjects, the
cooler colours, like green, blue and mauve, for backgrounds and more distant areas. As in black and
white work, the darker tones are better for the nearer planes and the lighter tones for the further
planes if the picture is to have any third-dimensional  quality, but most outdoor scenes do precisely
this of their own accord without any attention from the photographer,
    It must be remembered that a pale or unsaturated colour close to a strong colour may pick up a
colour cast from  its stronger neighbour, so beware of faces too close to green foliage and other
similar points of contact.
  Generally speaking, the eye cannot tolerate badly out-of-focus areas in colour as it can in black
and white. They become jarring and unpleasant and must be avoided unless the worker really knows
what he is doing and has already sorne experience of their out-of-focus effects, All can be Carefullv

llluminationfor Golour
Many of the colour films available today are marketed in two forms, one for daylight use and the
other for artificial light and with the film is generally supplied some fairly accurate information as to
what  light  sources should be used and a  list  of  filters suggested for any  variation  from  this
recommendation' At first sight this may appear somewhat strange, as in black and white photography
little thought need be given to the nature of the light source but only to the level of itlumination.
In colour photography, however, all cblour values are affected by rhe colour of the light falling on
the subject. This will be immediately apparent when  it is realized that  if bluish light  f;lls on alale
yellow subject, the colour photograph would show  it as green! Similarty  if you were to photogriph
a patch of snow in sunlight in the middle hours of the day  it would probably appear as whitebr
blue-white; later in the day, however, the same patch would appear yellowish and  still later, just
before sunset, as orange. It will therefore be understood that the colour of the light source will have
                                              a very  great influence on  colour  rendering
                                                         of the subject.

                                                       or  tungsten  is a yellowish  light and each
                                              would  tinge a  white  object  with   its own
                                                     colour. This  colour  cast  will .be recorded
                                           on the colour  film unless the makers have
                                           compensated for  this  effect. This  they  do,
                                                              in  fact, so that by  daylight a white  object

In order to select the appropriate  Rollei  conversion  filter  for any particular  illumination,    it  is
 essential to know  the precise colour  of the  light  for which  the film has been balanced by the
 manufacturers. It  is customary to express the quality of the light in terms of  its colour temperature
and then to quote the necessary correction  filter when using light  of a different  quality, Colour
temperature is usually indicated  in degrees Kelvin and a full range of  Rollei Colour  Correction
 Filters is available. These, however, are not calibrated in degrees Kelvin because the same number of
 degreesK, variation would give unequal results at either end of the Kelvin  scale. They are in fact
 calibrated in Mired, or more accurately in Deca-Mired (10's of Mired). The Mired system, although
related to the Kelvin  scale, allows accurate addition  or  subtraction  of values at any part  of the
colour temperature scale and fuller  details are given in the camera instruction manual or in Alec              'RolleiPearlman's                  Manual' (Fountain  Press), available from your Dealer.

Colour Photography
by Daylight
The best type of illumination  for colour material by daylight out of doors is a soft, slightly diffused
sun, fairly high in the heavens. Otherwise bright sun with plenty of white clouds and not too great
an area of blue sky will provide conditions  likely to give a very pleasant colour rendering. In high
altitudes or near to the sea in both winter and summer sunshine, the amount of blue sky becomes a
                                                    highly important  factor and neglect of  this
                                                    point may produce transparencies or colour
                                                       prints with a distinctly over-all blue colour
                                                       cast. This can be corrected to a limited extent
                                             by the use of the Rollei H.1 ultra-violet filter
                                                     or by the R.2 colour correction filter. It is not
                                                   required, however, with  Rollei  Planar  or
                                              Xenotar lenses due to the type of glass used
                                                              in lens manufacture.
                     Exposure
                                                  Correct  exposure  is  essential  for  colour
                                                    material, as it has very little latitude, but this
                                                        limitation  need  not  unduly  frighten  the
                                               beginner in colour. The majority of reversal
                                                   colour films (transparencies) and the greater

                                                     (colour prints) have a great measure of accord
                                                            in their sensitivitieseach within its own group
                                           and a start can be made immediately by the
                                               beginner with no equipment other than his
                                                     Rollei and a roll of colour film.  If the Rollei
                                           model has a  built-in exposure meter, then
                                                  very few mistakes can be made.
Flash
Flash bulbs  are a  highly  satisfactory method  of  supplying  the necessary correctly  balanced
illuniination for colour materials in present-day use and for many subjects it  is the only possible
method of illumination.  With  daylight  films of the reversal type, blue bulbs must, of course, be
used and with negative film  for the making  of positive prints, clear flashbulbs must be used. The
Rolleiflash gun which fits to the top bayonet of the camera, is probably the most satisfactory method
of having the light source at the camera position and this can be varied and the possioilities greatly
increasedby having one or two Rolleiflash extension units which are in fact further flash reflectors on
long leads, connected to the original  Rolleiflash and operated by the Rollei  shutter release. The
main Rolleiflash gun has  i  variable beam to cover the angle of view of the full-size format  or the
Super Slide size and flash factors are carefully worked out  for both angles on the back of the
Rolleiflash.
  Whichever type of colour photography may interest you or whether you prefer to change from
one type to  another,  all models  of  the  Rollei camera are designed to  facilitate  your  colour
photography and allow you to concentrate on your subject which  is always glowing and brilliant
on the full size Rollei screen.

Rollei has long had its own special reputation, but here is something new in photography - a true
     long focus Rollei with 135 mm. lens for professional and scientific use, for press work and a superb
     instrument for the serious amateur photographer. The Tele-Rolleiflex is made possible by the
     construction of the new Zeiss Sonnar 135 mm. lens. This new lens must not be confused with the
    135 mm. Sonnar widely used on 35 mm. cameras. The latter lens consists of 4-elements with an
     angle of view of l8'. The new Sonnar fitted to the Tele-Rolleiflex has S-elements,which are grouped
      in 3 components. Its resolving power is outstanding and possessesan unusually high image contrast
    and covers the 2* x  2!  in. size with the picture field sharply covered right up to the corners even
      at the f 14 aperture. Furthermore, it has an angle of view of 32" compared with the 55' of the standard
    35 mm. lens. Thus the Sonnar opens up new vistas in subject material due to the longer focal length
    and approximately 1.75 x enlarged reproduction ratio. Coupled with the Sonnar lens is a completely
    new 4-element finder lens - Heidosmat f/4 135 mm. - of surprising sharpness.There is no doubt that
     the Tele-Rolleiflex and the Zeiss Sonnar is a wonderful combination bringing forth something
      entirely new in photography.

      The Tele-Rolleiflex is ready to take advantage of every rapidly changing scene where there is no
     time to change from normal  to a tele shot.  It  is moreover ideal for  portraiture, fashion work,
     architecture and for photographing  all distant inaccessible objects and animal  life. By means of
     the standard and the special Rolleinar lenses, the full advantage of large scale reproduction can be
    taken even at the closest focusing ranges.

     A new feature of the Tele-Rolleiflex is the possibility of positioning the film behind a specially
     inserted optically flat glass, thus ensuring plateJike flatness of the film to cover the most exacting
    requirements for enlarging. The film can, however, also be positioned normally in the film channel.
    Focusing range is from infinity to 8| feet, but the Tele-Rolleiflex in combination with special Rolleinars
    0.35 and 0.7 and standard Rolleinars can focus right down to 11 in., permitting 213 natwal  size
     pictures. Both the special Rolleinar lenses for the Tele-Rolleiflex are mounted for the twin lens
    and are compensated for parallax.

The outstanding feature of the Rolleiflex 2.8F camera is the coupled exposure meter. Apertrre
and shutter speeds are linked with the setting needle of the exposure meter but, at the same time,
permits a completely free choice of setting in the orthodox way - a point which professional photo-
graphers will  appreciate. The  operation of this coupled shutter is the same as in Rolleiflex 3,5F,
describedon pages 12 and l3 ofthis Catalogue.
  The operation of this fine instrument  is further simplified by the automatic depth offield indicator
which is coupled with  the aperture setting. Changing the diaphragm automatically moves a white
band which  is located near to the focusing scale, so that the exact depth offield  is immediately
shown.
  The Rolleiflex 2.8F incorporates the new removable folding type of focusing hood with the new
super-brilliant focusing screen. The hood  is raised with a single hand operation and a 2,5 times
magnifier is included which covers the entire picture area. A  built-in  direct vision finder  is fitted
and directly beneath it is a focusing device with 4 x magnification for eye-level focusing.

The advantages of the square size are now universally acknowledged. The standard Rollei size is
still the 6 x 6 cm. using a 120 roll film; but a new square size has recently become extremely popular,
namely the 4 x 4 cm. giving 16 square pictures on a standard 120 roll film, or 12 on 127 sizefilm.
  For colour and special work, however, accessoriesare available which enable many Rollei cameras
to produce a range of negative sizes.
  The following  is given as a guide to help you  to choose the size according to the subject
requirements:

3,5F





The Rollei principle  is a
guarantee of sharp, expertly
composed pictures. Now, on
the 3.5F, you have
additionally a guarantee of
correct exposure by means of
the coupled shutter and
exposure meter. You need
no longer think, but can
concentrate the whole time
on composition  of the
picture. Failure in picture
making with the 3.5F is a
thing of the past.





Rolleiflex 3.5F is available in two models, being equipped with either the Zeiss Planat  f 13.5or the
Schneider Xenotar f/3.5 5-element lenses and each has the exposure meter fully coupled with the
synchronized Compur shutter. The meter reading is transferred directly to the diaphragm, making
for even further simplification in handling the camera and quicker and surer shooting.
  Two operations only are now required; pre-selection of shutter spded and superimposing the
pointer of the exposure meter. Thus the diaphragm will automatically be selectedin accordance with
the previously selectedshutter speed. Thus one setting only has to be considered, namely the shutter
speed. Individual pre-selection of speed and diaphragm is now possible, a point which professional
photographers will especially appreciate. In addition, the depth of field available with any given
f/stop  is indicated by the automatic depth of  field indicator housed in the focusing knob. This
mechanical coupling makes calculation of figures no longer necessary,leaving the operator free to
concentrate entirely on composition of the picture to be taken. The exposure.meter can be adjusted
very simply for the various film speeds and can also be set to compensate for the use of filters. A
small setting button on the left side of the camera permits exposure compensation for  I to 3 exposure
values, depending on the density of the filters used. This operation is again carried out without the
necessity of any calculations. Thus automation in Rollgi takes a further step forward and always
remaining is the fundamental Rollei principle of seeing the picture in the ground glass screen the
whole time in  full size and colour, the right way up, ensuring constant control even during the
 actual exposure.

           Projector
 This  ingenious projector  works  in
 conjunction  with  any  Rollei  6 x 6
 camera  fitted  with   the  detachable
 focusing hood and standard lens of
 75 mm.,80mm. or 135mm. focallength.
 It has the high precision expected of all
 Franke & Heidecke products and is
 very compact  in  size and extremely
 portable.
   Fitment   of  the  camera  to  the
 projector   is  extremely  simple - the
focusing hood  is removed and  the
camera locked  safely in  position on
the projector. The viewing lens of the
camera serves as the projector lens and
focusing is effected simply by using the
camera focusing knob.   It   is  quite
possibleto use the camerafor projecting
whilst   it  is loaded with  film. The
projector takes a standard car lamp
6 volt, 35 watt, which has an extremely
long life. Employing a 2i  in. x 2i  in.
size transparency, a  picture  size of
18 in. x 18 in. is obtained-quite large
enough for convenient viewing by  a
small group of people. However, it  is
possible to obtain a special Rolleinar
iens, which is  supplied in  the usual
bayonet mount sizesI, II and III to give
a large projectedpicture of 40 in. x 40 in.
and again, the Rollei 6  x  6 format
completely fills this square screen.
  Bymeansof aspecial2 x2 adapter,
supplied as an accessory,it is possible
to project the square 4 x 4 cm. Super
Slides.
  The projector  is simply set to  the
required voltage from  I l0 v. to 250 v.
on AC current and is supplied with the
usual 3 core flex. A special small size
projection screen size 18 in. x 18 in.
is available for table viewing and this
size  is  quite  large enough  to  give
enlarged pictures for small groups of
people.

   All   Rollei   lens  accessories  have  anti-reflection    coating.   Coating   of  the camera  lens  surface  materially    increases
the  brilliance   of the picture.  However,   to  retain  this  brilliance  when  using  lens accessories   it  is essential  that  these
too must  also be coated.  All  Rollei  optical  lens accessories are treated  with  a hard  abrasion-resistant   anti-reflection
coating.   In  addition   the  coating  on  each   filter   is adjusted   to  enhance  the  effect  of  the   filter's   colour   and  to  give
maximum contrast. All  optical accessories are supplied in leather cases at no
extra cost.

ROLLEI LENS HOOD
A  lens hood   is an essential  piece  of equipment.   Not  only  to  protect  the  lens
from  extraneous    light  but  also  to  shield  the  lens  from   rain,  snow  or  spray  at
water  sport  events.  The  Rollei   lens hood   is  fitted   with  bayonet  mount   which
locks on the outer bayonet  mount  ofthe  camera  taking  lens.  It can, ofcourse,
be used  in  conjunction    with   other  lens  accessories.

                                   The  table  on  page  25  shows  the  range   of  filters  available   (except  colour
                                        conversion    filters),   their  use  and  the  increases  required   in  exposure.  The
                                                           filters  fasten  to  the  inner  bayonet  mount   of  the  taking   lens and  each  filter   is
                                         supplied  in a leather  case. Separate  cornbinations   in leather cases are, however,
                                             available,  such as lens hood  complete  with  two  filters  to choice  or a complete
                                               set  in  leather  case  consisting    of  lens  hood,  two  sets  of  Rolleinar    lenses  and
                                                 five   filters   to  your   choice.  For   earlier   Rollei  cameras  not  equipped   with
                                      bayonet  mount,   an  intermediate   bayonet   ring   is  required.   Study  the  wide
                                      range  of  Rollei   filters  available,  as they   will  greatly  increase  the  scope  of
                                         your  camera.
