Manufacturer description #1

Rollei fototechnic’s product philosophy, which says that top-grade professional cameras should be provided with all the features it needs to master any situation presented to it, has been realized to perfection with the Rolleiflex 6008 integral. Many functions which can only be performed in other systems by buying additional accessories, are part of the basic equipment of the Rolleiflex 6008 integral.

Their unrestricted flexibility makes them the perfect tool for professional users and committed amateur photographers, who demand absolute top quality. As part of an open system with a comprehensive range of accessories to cope with any situation, it holds the undisputed number one position in medium-format photography.

Convincing technical data:

• Integrated TTL exposure metering in the camera body, regardless of which viewfinder system is used.
• Variable metering characteristics with choice between center-weighted multi-zone metering, spot and multi-spot metering.
• Aperture-priority, shutter-priority and programmed AE modes as well as metered manual. AE lock and exposure correction, auto bracketing and multiple exposures.
• Professional TTL flash metering for perfect flash exposure or balanced fill-in flash with synchronization down to 1/500 or 1/1000 sec.
• Viewfinder system with interchangeable attachments and focusing screens, as well as finder display of all relevant settings.
• Motorized film advance for single exposures and sequences with two frames per second.
• Detachable handy grip for optimum camera handling.
• Professional quick-change film magazines for 6 x 6 and 4.5 x 6 with film speed input, unique laminar drawslide, preloadable film inserts and time-saving automatic loading and rewind.
• Powerful NiCad battery and rapid charger; battery condition displayed in viewfinder.
• High-performance Zeiss lenses from 30 to 1000 mm plus exclusive lenses from Schneider-Kreuznach with superlative high-speed optics, high-performance zoom lenses, shift, wide-angle and apochromatic special-purpose lenses.
• Practical range of accessories for all areas of conventional and digital photography and for electronic imaging.

SHUTTER: Electronically controlled leaf shutter, 1/500 s and 1/1000 s to 30 s in 1/3 increments plus B, T, direct drive controlled by two linear motors in each lens. Time exposures from 1 s to 99 min, 99 s can be set via control unit in steps of 1 s.

EXPOSURE METERING: 1. Center-weighted multi-zone metering with seven silicon photocells in five groups behind instant return mirror. Two metering patterns. 2. Spot metering by photodiode on center of focusing screen (approx. 1% of frame area). 3. Multi-spot metering and averaging of up to five subject details. Automatic stray-light compensation during reading and exposure.

QUICK RELEASE: Shutter operates approx. 3-4ms after depression of shutter release with PQ lenses, approx. 2 ms with PQS lenses.

AUTO QUICK RELEASE: Automatic quick-release standby after every exposure. Delay variable between 1 ms and 99 ms with Master Control unit.

EXPOSURE MODES: Shutter-speed priority AE. Aperture-priority AE. Programmed AE, based on fast-speed priority. Basic speed in shutter-priority AE variable from 15 s to 1/500 s with Master Control unit. Meter-assisted manual in 1/3 EV increments.
