Rollei did not actually made many range finder. Are u using the Rollei 35 (not range finder only zone focus), XF 35 (small range finder but not accurate enough for critical focusing) or 35RF (essentially a Voigtlander R2, not so bad for accurate focusing)?

I am a Voigtlander R2 and R2A user and if you are using Rollei 35 RF, it is the same as the R2. Please PM me and we could arrange a shoot on the weekends. Always a pleasure to meet fellow RF users. Alternatively you could take a look at this forum www.rangefinderforum.com There are a lot good information there on RF photography.

Then must be Rollei 35 or XF 35 already. 35RF is made in Japan.

is without rangefinder. Just albada type ofviewfinder.
