I love Rolleiflex TLRs. Over forty years ago I had a 2.8F, but out of necessity I had to sell it to buy my first Hasselblad. I bought this 2.8D to jump back into medium format film photography.

Added - A custom lens cap that will fit over a Rolleiflex Bay III filter fitted to the taking lens. Must be ordered individually.

There are so many different Rolleiflex 2.8 TLR models. To insure that this fits your camera, please see the last photo and check the dimensions listed. If your camera matches the dimensions shown in the picture, then this should fit.

According to printed Rolleiflex Specifications, these should fit:
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 B
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 C
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 D
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 E
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 E2
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 E3
  • Rolleiflex 2.8 F
  • Tele-Rolleiflex (135mm, NOT the "FT")
Lens shades are very important for photography and while the single shade for the taking lens works perfectly and keeps flare down, you also need to shade the viewing lens. Without a dual shade you will see flare in the viewing lens and this will make it difficult to compose and focus.

Just line up the red dot with the center of the lens and turn the shade combo clock-wise. The shade will snap into position! Do the same thing for the Dual lens cap.

I am an inventor and designer with 70 US patents. I am always looking for ways to improve things. I own a lot of cameras, mostly film, and am always looking for someway to improve my photographs. I am sure I could have purchased second hood for some of the cameras, but hoods are rare and expensive for TLRs. For that reason I designed and 3D-printed this hood and cap for my l3.5F. It takes almost four hours to 3D-print the combination. As is normal for FDM 3D-printing; there may be gaps, protrusions and imperfections in the surfaces of the print (see photos), but none of these imperfections will impede shading of your lens. These are 3D printed using expensive Tough PLA from PolyMax or MatterHackers.

The camera body in the photo is NOT included. Lens hood and cap only.
