is the camera battery-dependent, or is it like an old Contax III or Canon
7, meter ignorable if it packs in? I have been offered a Triotar-fronted
Rollei 35, and I'm wondering...

mercury batteries in all my Rollei 35s and have never had a battery run

up, except for the brief moments in use.
It is possible that when the lens is collapsed, the meter may not be on.
I do not know about the collapsed lens turning off the meter.

On the earlier Rollei 35 cameras having a PX625/PX13 battery, it appears
to me that the meter is on all of the time that light is entering the
port on the front of the camera. Is that the case, and how long is the
battery life of an alkaline/manganese battery in the camera?
