Hello José:
Your 2,8F was made at the ending of 1960
probably, Rollei started to manufacture it in June 1960.
I've probably posted this comment in the past but
my first Rollei was a 2.8C with a Xenotar
lens. I bought it in Hong Kong and got all the
accessories available at the time. It was a
wonderful camera but of course no light meter. I
used the paper guide that came in film packs as
well as a very old/sick GE meter. Strangely, I
don't remember any really poor exposure
results. That camera served me well with travels through three continents.
I had to let it go when I needed a 3.5F for a
Rolleimarin IV I bought from a guy who couldn't
afford to own it, thus missing the chance to own a 2.8F.
The point I make is that the Rollei's are the
best built cameras I have used and I still own Nikon and Contax products.
Regards and Happy Halloween to those who participate.
