Ferdi;
The lady's father camera was a special camera for test and
demonstration made in 1986 (about 120 units). I don't think it was made as
a 3003 prototype because the 3003 was manufactured from 1984 with the
2/1000 shutter speed.. This camera has some red parts like the shutter
release button as distinctive regarding the regular 2000F Motor,

The same lady contacted me through my blog about the
Rolleiflex SL 35 System; I did not answer her yet. The Rollei Electronic
shutter for the E and 2000 and 3001 and 3003 cameras was prepared to give
16sec to 2/1000sec from the beginning (all them use the same shutter),
however the 2/1000sec shutter speed was used for the 3003 and 3001 cameras
only. BTW, 2/1000 shutter speed was a series feature for the 3003 and 3001
cameras.

Hello everyone,
Today I was contacted by a lady who owns her father's 'SL 2000F motor'
camera. Special is that it has a max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec instead of
1/1000 sec. It is also made for 72 exposures. It has the extended switch on
the magazine.
She wrote that her father was a Rolleiflex dealer and that this camera is
a prototype for the 3003 and that 50 cameras were made.
I believe that all 3003/3001 cameras still have the 1/1000 sec shutter,
so this new shutter was not introduced in the series cameras.
Does anyone know about this 1/2000 sec shutter?
Best regards,
Ferdi.---
