The Rolleiflex SL66 E was manufactured between 19 and is a 6×6 format medium format film camera that comes with a Carl Zeiss Planar 80mm 2.8 HFT lens. Vintage film cameras hold their value quite well so if I didn’t like it I could just sell it again. Is it the best Rolleiflex / best film camera? The two striking features for me were (1) the lens could be tilted to give a tilt shift style look and more similar to what is seen with large format cameras and (2), every lens can be mounted in reverse to become a macro lens! Brilliant! I couldn’t believe my luck on this discovery and bought a SL66E from eBay just hours later. On paper the Rolleiflex SL66 E appeared to be the holy grail of cameras and unlike most others I knew of. I received the Mamiya 645 then only days later I discovered the Rollei SL66 / SL66E. The answer was no so instead I settled for a Mamiya M645 1000S camera with a fast Mamiya Sekor 80mm f1.9 lens. I was weighing up whether the 500C (and it’s lenses) could do what I wanted. It was during my usual online research when I stumbled across the Rolleiflex SL66 E camera when actually looking to buy a Hasselblad 500C. My latest purchase! Here is a short Rolleiflex SL66 review explaining why I bought the camera instead of a Hasselblad and why it is possibly the best Rolleiflex / any make camera! (I love it!)
