It was succeeded by the SL3003 (1984), which extended the fastest shutter speed from 1⁄1000 to 1⁄2000 sec., and SL3001 (1985), a simplified SL3003 which removed the waist-level finder and reverted to 1⁄1000 sec.
The prototype SL2000 was first exhibited at photokina '76, featuring both aperture- and shutter-priority autoexposure modes along with a top speed of 1⁄2000 sec.
[1] However, when it was released in February 1981 for Germany and selected other European countries, the shutter-priority mode had been dropped and the top speed reduced to 1⁄1000 sec.
[3] The SL3003 was shown at photokina '84, increasing the fastest shutter speed and adding a grip to the right side of the camera; it required the NiCd battery pack.
In addition, Rollei manufactured a lower-cost line of Rolleinar MC lenses for QBM.
