Wayne,
I have just returned from running to my camera closet to check the
Tele-Rolleiflex. No separation! The lenses are in pristine condition. The
friend who sold it to me around 20 years ago told me that it had been used by
Police CID so it guess it was stored in the station. I store it outside its
case in a bedroom at about 15 C.
Best regards,
Ferdi.

Wow! in pursuing Tele-Rolleis, I note that a significant number of cameras
being offered for sale have developed problems with lens separation. I think
it is more than my imagination. It seems like at least half of owners
indicate the problem with their camera.
Is this truly a bad problem with this model of camera, or is it a case of the
camera being so collectible that only flawed cameras are offered for sale.
What about examples of the camera that have not yet developed the problem?,
is it likely they will not develop problems with lens separation?
I bought a pristine example at a very reasonable price, about 60 or 70% of
the cost of a nice F. Already shot a roll through it and really like it.
Wondering if there are some things I should do in storing and/or using it to
prevent the problem from cropping up.
Best,
Wayne---
