Produced primarily for the American market, it represents an early step toward the high-end 6×6 Rolleiflex cameras that would later become widely recognized among professional photographers. Approximately 7,870 Type 1 examples were produced. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camera uses a fixed 80mm F2.8 Tessar taking lens paired with an 80mm F2.8 viewing lens. Early examples were fitted with Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar lenses, while later Type 1 cameras were fitted with Carl Zeiss Opton Tessar lenses. Because the exact lens can vary according to serial number and factory history, the individual camera should be identified by its serial number before describing the taking lens as either Jena or Opton. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Type 1 is distinguished from the later 2.8A Type 2 by its Compur Rapid shutter, with speeds from 1 second to 1\/400 second plus Bulb. It uses the distinctive Bayonet II accessory mount and features a waist-level finder with interchangeable magnification loupe and parallax compensation. The focusing mechanism and large 6×6 viewing screen provide the characteristic composing experience associated with classic Rolleiflex TLR cameras. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a medium format TLR, the Rolleiflex 2.8A is particularly suited to portraits, studio work, street photography, still life, and carefully composed landscape photography. Its 6×6 cm negative provides substantially more film area than 35mm, while the F2.8 taking lens offers useful subject separation and low-light capability for its era. For collectors, the Type 1 is especially interesting because of its early production position and the variation between original Jena Tessar examples and later Opton-fitted cameras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1119802\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e UN-119-1099\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e- Camera is fully functional\u003cbr\u003e- Screen\/Display has minor dust\u003cbr\u003e- Lens glass\u003cstrong\u003e has 2 fungus spots, moderate haze \u003c\/strong\u003e(backlight shots may be affected), and minor dust\u003cbr\u003e- Camera body has moderate scratches\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- กล้องทำงานเต็มระบบ\u003cbr\u003e- สกรีน มีฝุ่นเล็กน้อย\u003cbr\u003e- เลนส์ \u003cstrong\u003eมีรา2จุด มีฝ้าปานกลางถ่ายย้อนแสงอาจจะมีผลต่อภาพ \u003c\/strong\u003eมีฝุ่นเล็กน้อย\u003cbr\u003e- สภาพตัวกล้อง มีรอยขีดข่วนปานกลาง\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CAMERA SHOP UNIT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46063473852460,"sku":"UN-119-1099","price":18500.0,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0082\/0654\/9051\/files\/IMG_20260726_150001.jpg?v=1788093403","url":"https:\/\/unit-filmcamera.com\/products\/read-rolleiflex-2-8a-type-1","provider":"UNIT CAMERA SHOP | BKK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
