The Rolleiflex Automat, model 1 is a medium format TLR camera manufactured by Franke & Heidecke, Braunschweig, Germany.
Contents
General
This is the first model in a very succesfull line of Rolleiflex 6x6 Automats. Highly appraised by photographers because its "automatic" functions enabled a faster workflow.
- Automatic stop at the first frame of the film, no red window needed anymore. Possible by a patented film start sense mechanism which detected the tape that fixes the film to its backpaper.
- Automatic tensioning of the shutter during the film transport.
- Double exposure prevention.
- Blank exposure prevention.
