Starter Accessory Kit for Rollei 35, 35T, 35S, 35SE, 35TE

Choose the version that matches your model:

• Rollei 35 (Tessar, Made in Germany and Singapore) and Rollei 35T: version “Rollei 35 and 35T”
• Rollei 35S: version “Rollei 35S”
• Rollei 35SE: version “Rollei 35SE”
• Rollei 35TE: version “Rollei 35TE”

Not for the Rollei 35 LED, B35, C35, Rollei 35 Classic, XF 35 or Rollei 35 with S-Xenar: on these models, not all four parts fit, or they haven’t been tested yet. You’ll find individual parts in our Rollei 35 series accessories, and the Rollei 35 AF has its own accessory kit. Not sure which model you have? Our Rollei 35 model comparison will tell you.

Bought or inherited a Rollei 35? Then you’ll need a battery for the light meter and, if the originals are missing, a lens cap, lens hood and case. Which parts fit depends on the lens (Tessar or Sonnar) and on the meter (a needle on top of the camera or LEDs in the viewfinder). This kit is put together by model, so all you have to do is pick your version.

The Rollei 35, 35T and 35S meter with a CdS cell and were designed for the 1.35V PX625 mercury battery. The PX625 battery adapter takes 675 zinc-air cells from the drugstore, which deliver around 1.4V under the tiny load of the light meter, only slightly more than the mercury cell. The Rollei 35SE and 35TE need the 5.6V PX27 battery. The PX27 battery adapter takes four SR44 cells, which together deliver 6.2V. If the adapter fits too tightly, swap one SR44 for the included, slimmer SR43.

The Rollei 35, 35T and 35S have no off switch for the light meter. With the lid on, the case keeps the meter cell in the dark, which stops the battery from draining. The case lid won’t close with the lens hood screwed on, so unscrew the hood before packing the camera away. All parts are also available individually.

Which version do I need?

Look at the front of your camera: if it says Rollei 35, 35 T, 35 S, 35 SE or 35 TE, choose the matching version. The 35 SE and 35 TE show the exposure with LEDs in the viewfinder, the other three with a needle on top of the body. If your camera says Classic, LED, B35, C35 or XF 35, this kit won’t fit.
