Rollei Report by Claus Prochnow

Welcome to Claus Prochnow The Author of the Rollei Report

Claus has been a long time developer and engineer working for the Rollei camera factory in Brunswick ( Franke and Heidecke in Braunschweig), Germany. Claus has used his extensive technical knowledge and his insight in the Rollei Cameras and it's historical knowledge to build this unparalleled series about "ROLLEI" ; "The ROLLEI REPORT" is the most comprehensive series of books ever written about Rollei Cameras and it's origins: Franke & Heidecke, which until recently was known as Rollei Fototechnik, but now is named Franke Heidecke Optische Werke. Claus is now working on a series of the famous Voigtlander brand , that had so much in common with Rollei.

The Rollei Report consists of a series of books, covering virtually every product and prototype the Rollei factory ever developed. From the earliest Heidosmat camera via the world famous Rollei 35 and Rolleiflex SL66 medium format camera to the modern Rollei 6008. If you would like to see the home page of the Rollei Reports, click here.

The Rollei Report series is a must for every Rollei collector or enthusiast user. The books will give you an unparalleled insight in the history AND the construction of all Rollei cameras and other products such as flash heads and projectors and much more.

Claus Prochnow has given the RolleiClub the special opportunity to sell his books over the Internet, for which we like to thank him.
