For sale here is a Rolleiflex 6003 Professional 6x6 Medium Format film camera. This kit is a complete modular system that was the more sophisticated alternative to the Hasselblad 500 Series cameras. 

This listing includes The 6003 Professional body, waist level viewfinder, a new production rechargeable battery with charger, Zeiss Planar 80mm f/2.8 Lens, and 120 format 6x6 film back. Essentially, a complete kit for getting started with a high end square format film camera system.

The Rolleiflex 6003 Professional is a medium format powerhouse, perfect for photographers who demand precision and unparalleled image quality. With its iconic 6x6 square format, intuitive ergonomics, and exceptional build quality, the 6003 is an ideal choice for studio work, portraiture, or landscape photography. Paired with the legendary Carl Zeiss 80mm f/2.8 Planar lens, this setup offers stunning sharpness, gorgeous bokeh, and the timeless image rendering Rolleiflex is known for. This is an incredibly sophisticated modular system camera with a dizzying array of potential accessories and lenses. One unique feature, the interchangeable film backs have both a built in darkslide you can't lose, and a choice between 645 and 6x6 formats depending on the back used.

What are the differences between the 6008, 6003, and 6002? 

The Rolleiflex 6003 Professional and 6008E are both part of the second generation of the legendary Rolleiflex 6000 series, but they cater to slightly different needs. The 6008E is often considered the flagship of the lineup, offering advanced features like integrated spot metering, a higher-capacity battery, and more extensive automation for studio and field work. In contrast, the 6003 Professional is a more streamlined version that retains the same exceptional image quality and modularity while forgoing some of the automation and advanced metering options. The 6003 features aperture-priority auto-exposure and manual modes, making it ideal for photographers who prefer more hands-on control without the additional complexity of the 6008E's enhanced electronics. Both cameras share the same robust build quality, modular film backs, and compatibility with the superb range of Rolleiflex lenses and accessories, making them powerful tools in the medium format world.

The 6002, by comparison, has more in common with the earlier SLX series cameras, lacking interchangeable film backs, 1/500th top shutter speed instead of 1/1000, and simpler metering that functions only with the lens set to "A" Mode. In this mode, the camera will select the correct aperture for a given shutter speed via the mechanical pointer indicator on the lens. This is very basic but does function well for evenly lit situations.
