The camera body, light meter, and filter in the photos are NOT included.
Over 20% discount when buying a complete standard set! All other options are for the single item only.
After many years of offering many options on the lens shades, I needed to simplify it. However, I did not simplify the design! I added the film ID option to the standard shades AND added a spot to add one of the many "Clip-on" light meters to both the dual and single lens shades! These new shades cost less than the comparable "ID" shades I offered in the past.

I love Rolleiflex TLRs. Over forty years ago I had a 2.8F, but out of necessity I had to sell it to buy my first Hasselblad. I bought this 2.8D to jump back into medium format film photography.

Recent Review "Bravo! Your products are outstanding, and they address problems that no one else does. It is refreshing to see such ingenuity. I have a TLR model E. Lens caps would not stay put because of wear and tear I suspect. I tried a couple different cheap Chinese options and I tried an expensive replacement of an original lens cap. None worked. Yours does! And I love the double lens shade. Thank you. Rob. PS. Feel free to quote me as a satisfied customer."

A custom lens cap that will fit over a Rolleiflex Bay III filter fitted to the taking lens. Must be ordered individually.

There are so many different Rolleiflex 2.8 TLR models. To insure that this fits your camera, please see the last photo and check the dimensions listed. If your camera matches the dimensions shown in the picture, then this should fit.

According to printed Rolleiflex Specifications, these should fit:
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 B
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 C
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 D
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 E
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 E2
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 E3
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 F
  • Tele-Rolleiflex (135mm, NOT the "FT")
Lens shades are very important for photography and while the single shade for the taking lens works perfectly and keeps flare down, you also need to shade the viewing lens. Without a dual shade you will see flare in the viewing lens and this will make it difficult to compose and focus.

Just line up the red dot with the center of the lens and turn the shade combo clock-wise. The shade will snap into position! Do the same thing for the Dual lens cap.

I am an inventor and designer with 75 US patents. I am always looking for ways to improve things. I own a lot of cameras, mostly film, and am always looking for some way to improve my photographs. I am sure I could have purchased an original hood for some of the cameras, but hoods are rare and expensive for TLRs. For that reason, I designed and 3D-printed this hood and cap for my Rollei. As is normal for FDM 3D-printing; there may be gaps, protrusions and imperfections in the surfaces of the print (see photos), but none of these imperfections will impede shading of your lens.
