Rollei 35AF Film Camera - Open Box, Silver

Rollei 35AF Film Camera — a pocketable autofocus film camera built for street-shooting a new city

The gist: A modern remake of the classic Rollei 35 that adds autofocus and a compact, pocketable body — built for travelers who want real film grain without lugging a bulky SLR.

• LIDAR autofocus: Focuses precisely from 28 inches to infinity, so you can grab a candid street shot without fumbling manual focus in the moment.
• 35mm f/2.8 lens, 5 elements: Delivers sharp images with good detail and contrast, especially stopped down to f/4 for daylight travel scenes.
• Manual exposure control: Offers aperture priority or full manual shutter/aperture control for travelers who want creative control, not just point-and-shoot.
• Lightweight, pocketable body: Small enough to carry all day, making it more likely to actually be in your pocket when a scene appears.

Fstoppers' review found the autofocus makes shooting "smoother and quicker" than the manual-focus original, though they noted the focus motor "does make a noticeable sound" — worth knowing before shooting somewhere quiet like a temple or museum.

Best for: travelers who want an easy-to-carry film camera with autofocus for street photography and candid shots on the go. Skip it if: you're on a tight gear budget — Fstoppers flagged the price as steep next to used alternatives like the Ricoh GR1. Runs ~$704 (open box) — check the current price before buying.
