Released in 1974, the XF35 was a more conventional design than the Rollei 35 miniature 35 mm camera. It is a compact rangefinder camera with a fast f/2,3 40 mm Sonnar lens as its unique selling point. With Rollei at the time owning the Voigtländer brand, it was also released (with some modifications) as the Voigtländer VF 135.
