Talking about the photograph "scanning 11" at the Flickr F&H factory
set, Rolleicord II last or sixth version and Rolleicord III are very
similar, but the Rolleicord II version 6 has a little knob for the
strap or case between the winding knob and the focusing knob, the
scanning 11 photograph shows cameras with this little knob and then
they are Rolleicord II last version cameras . According Claus
Prochnow's Rollei Report books, the Rolleiflex 2.8C was manufactured
from December 1952 to March 1954 for the Xenotar 2.8/80 version and
from April 1954 to June 1955 for both lenses Xenotar and Planar; the
3.5A or MX was manufactured from June 1951 to March 1954 and the
Rolleicord III from November 1950 to July 1953, the Rolleicord II last
version was manufactured from November 1949 to September 1950 and then
the photographs in the F&H set could be taken between 1949 and 1955
being the number 11 older than the others.
