Hi folks, does anyone have experience of the above lens, either on Rolleiflex SLRs (one of which I own) or, even better, adapted to Fuji X mount (also an X-E1 owner)? Whilst funds don't currently allow me to run to either of Fuji's telephoto zooms, it could be convenient to have something a little longer in the bag for upcoming events, and the Rollienar has 'appeared on my radar'!

Thanks, Nigel

Not a bad lens, it was made by Tokina wasn't it? Pretty cheap to buy and fairly good IQ I believe.

Yeah, that's pretty much what my searches have shown. It seems to be a 1/2 decent lens and, obviously, it'll be fine on my SL35 E they also seem to be OK once adapted, although I can't find anyone using one on a Fuji specifically.
 
A rather late reply but I've started shooting this lens (the MC version which I believe was another of the Mamiya built Rolleinar lenses) on X-mount and the results look very promising. Good sharpness and contrast, a degree of "pop". Manual focusing is smooth and accurate.
