The Rolleiflex T Type 2 is an updated version of the Rolleiflex T with minor mechanical refinements. It maintains the same Zeiss Tessar 75mm f/3.5 taking lens and 6x6cm format — the Type 2 improvements are subtle mechanical updates.
Same optical specification as the original T — Zeiss Tessar 75mm f/3.5. Sharp, contrasty images. The Type 2 refinements are in mechanics and styling rather than optics. Classic Rolleiflex TLR operation.
