Rolleiflex Minidigi Camera

A
New twist on a classic, the old Rollei upright, two-lens, square-frame camera has been an industry standard since its invention in 1920.

Many professional portrait photographers still use Rolleis, and all treat them like Stradivarius violins: irreplaceable instruments of perfection from a bygone era.
