A strange development from Mint Camera - they announced that the compact autofocus 35mm film camera they have been working on for a while will be called... Rollei 35AF. The official release will be this summer (2024). The price is expected to be around $650-800. Here is an enhanced view of the teaser:

And Finally... Official Name Confirmed
It's official. The name of this camera will be... *drumroll*....
Yes, you read that right. We are thrilled to announce that Rollei has graciously granted us permission to use their logo. This collaboration marks an exciting step forward for all parties involved. The Rollei brand will undoubtedly increase awareness for this camera. After pouring our hearts and souls into this project, I really hope the Rollei 35AF becomes accessible to a broader audience.
