I wish I had bought one when I could have. Too late now.
I once met
David Breashears who topped Everest twice, once making the famous
Imax film on the climb where so many folks died.
It was at a book signing I believe, and someone in the group had a
Rollei 35. David asked him to bring it up so he could show it to the
folks, as his favorite camera.
In one of his books there is a picture of David on the top of the
mountain, with his gloves off, changing the film in the special Imax
camera they used. I would guess they were made with the Rollei.
