Hello Phong,
No, the Expression was made from Mid 1995 - end of 1996. I was quoting
from Mr. Prochnow's book Rollei Report 5 from 1997. Your 80 Years
Anniversary model is from 2000 and therefore not referenced in the
book. So, we are not sure about the shutter.
PR.../.. is the reference number Mr. Prochnow assigned to Rollei
products and models. It is an easy way to name a camera model.
Kind regards,
Ferdi.
