G'day All,

Has anyone got a copy of the repair manual for the Rollei 35 LED they can send me please?

I've got one here on which the film advance lever will not move, and the lens is blocked from extending far enough to turn and lock into position.

Regards, Chris

I have a Rollei 35 manual at http://www.scribd.com/doc/19303290/Rollei-35-Service-Manual but I don't know how similar it is to the LED.

Thanks very much for your prompt reply Monopix, but I've already got one of those. I've already dived in now anyway, because I'm never all that patient...
The problem was that a brass contact at the back of the lens/shutter tube had come adrift and was blocking the lens from being pulled out far enough to turn into place. Just to complicate things, some clown had removed the film advance gear and replaced incorrectly, so the film advance could not swing through the normal arc.
The camera is now well on the way to recovery.
Regards, Chris
