Rolleimagic I Medium Format TLR - For Parts / Outlet | Classic German Twin-Lens Reflex with Automatic Exposure and Original Case The Rolleimagic I is a beautifully crafted German medium format Twin-Lens Reflex camera from Franke & Heidecke — the legendary manufacturer behind the iconic Rolleiflex series. The Rolleimagic I holds a special place in Rollei's history as one of the first TLR cameras to feature fully automatic exposure control — making medium format photography accessible to a whole new generation of photographers without sacrificing the image quality and shooting experience that made Rollei cameras so universally beloved. Produced between 1960 and 1963 in Braunschweig, Germany, it represents a fascinating and innovative chapter in medium format camera design. This example is offered as outlet/for parts — the light meter is not functioning and the shutter is stuck. It remains a compelling find for the experienced repairer or collector.
