I can only guess how much the TLR will cost, it'll be out of my budget, but very nice, and great to see.

The best camera is one that still works!
How expensive is expensive ... more than a new M7 or MP? 😀

How much does a new M7 cost again? The last Rollei FX model cost over $5,000...

Interesting, I see Rollei have departed from the hallowed Planar, with the lens in the new model an Apogon.
By the way, just see two film cameras, where is the digital mentioned in the thread title ?

Probably... Although I've owned an MP, I'd never buy a new one, far too pricey for me.
I do really like the modern Rolleiflexes though, the GX can sometimes be had for a price I'd consider.

I think an M7 or MP is $4995 brand new at B&H. If I did have to spend $5000 on a camera though, I'd get the Rollei.

Who can explain optics differences between the Planar and the Apogon based on lenses used in the past?

Yes it does, and that Rollei S-Apogon lens is made by DHW Fototechnik. Maybe their license to use the Planar name has expired or they just don't want to pay for the Zeiss name.

I think you're stretching the definition of 'brand new' a bit. They're just slightly improved models.

Les than $5000 on ebay:

should be same lens design as Planar with different name because the license for using the "Planar" name has expired

^^^you need to pop a NSFW tag on that, Keith.
Someone needs to tell it to put some clothes on.

Wow. Very sexy on the FX-n. Funny how the back plate only says FX. So how much for the Hy6?
