Thank you Elias.
The only difference is your Rollei 35 has a S-Xenar 3,5/40 lens and
this is  not a difference because it's a Tessar 3,5/40 copy.
I'll never forget the excellent way my Rollei 35 captured several
Spaniard-colonial churches inner light  working at 1/15 f4 and f3,5
camera handheld when I visited Córdoba city -the second largest city
in my country- two years ago, The photographs are in my Flickr gallery
and I think several of the members have seen them. Knowing the very
difficult conditions to take those photographs, I only can think the
Rollei 35 is an excellent camera.
Some people don't like the 40mm focal length saying it is not
"normal"  for the 35 mm format and it is not a wide angle lens yet,
however it increases the lens DOF regarding a 50mm lens and the images
still don't have the "wide angle" look.
