Mr Woo commented on the flash sync speeds up to 500th because it uses a leaf shutter.We tend to forget how useful that was speaking as someone who started using flash with bulbs! Actually I preferred them to electronic flash as it seemed to give a warmer tone to the pictures especially skin tones.
I have this exact camera. Used it entirely in a trek around Annapurna. My Nikon F w telephoto was too heavy and gave to the porters to carry. Thank you Mr. Woo!
Thanks Mr. Woo for the wonderful brief introduction of the adorable little Rollei 35 cameras. I have collected and kept the 35S, 35SE, and the B35 c/w flash and a hard case over 20 years ago. I make sure they all work (include the meters and I actually have the one which needed mercury battery converted to non-mercury battery by a professional). All of them come with the authentic Rollei soft cases and hand straps. I have never use any of them, not even once! All my friends adore them. I am happy to keep them because they take so little room.
Hello John and of course Mr. Woo, I have the 1978-1980 era Rollei 35 LED version, extremely small camera and it takes a bit to get use to the film advance on the left side of the body but it makes sense on this camera. Great Job John and take care.- Jeff
These are great cameras. Caution, the shutter has to be cocked before you can retract the lens into the body. If it isn't, it will damage the camera. Many people have.
Always a pleasure to see and listen Mr.Woo explain the cameras and the story behind then. Thanks for sharing and continue with this good videos and Mr.Woo.
Thank you for yet another video Mr. Woo . I have two Rolleis a 35 and a 35B which has the Triotar lens . I love your idea for overcoming the flashgun problem.
Germans call it Roll’eye, not Roll’eh. Like Rolleyeflex, not Rollehflex. The Rollei35 was the 2nd camera I, as a child learned to use. The first was a Halina Ai, a TLR from china, a Ricoh copy that was a Rolleicord copy.
Im very curios to know either your or mr Woos opinion in the rolleiflex sl35 with the planar lens as I may buy one but there is always the potential it will need expensive maintenance
As an older guy who didn't own a lot of different equipment, I am enjoying these videos a lot.

Great new video of the Rollei 35. Mr Woo ‘s flash gadgets are clever.
Thank you for another excellent vintage video📸👏
Wonderful video and a great story. I wondered why Mr. Woo didn’t hold the camera upside down to improve the shadows cast for his flash photos.

My favourite camera although challenging to use 🙌
Thank you for this video! I really enjoy listening to Mr. Woo--he's a veritable walking Camera/Film/Photography Encyclopedia!

I’m doing a very special Rollei video today so stand by

Thank you for this. I have a Rollei 35 with a few parts missing. I would love to have it refurbished, if possible.
Cute Camera ...🦘
