Subject: [Leica] Rollei 35

I have a Rollei 35 TE in my collection, with Tessar lens. In fact, this lens 
is incredibly sharp. And the camera body is build like a tank. But it does 
not have a rangemeter, the light metering system is very poor, and the lens 
cannot be exchanged. The Rollei is a nice toy to carry in your pocket, but 
not a tool to do serious photography. If you want to shoot with a Rollei 35 
and do not want to use a handheld lightmeter, i recommend to use Ilford XP2 
only.
