[rollei_list] Re: Rolleiflex Mirrors.

My statement had to do with the comment in the eBay seller's auction page,
I  explained it, however it's a fact all Rolleiflex cameras from the first
Automat have identical luminosity for the viewing lens, f 2.8, except the
Tele  and the Wide and  the Standard Neu that had a Steinheil-Cassar f 3.1/75mm
viewing lens labeled Heidoscop- Anastigmat 3.1/75, BTW this is a very rare
sample because Zeiss provided the Heidosmat viewing lens with the Zeiss
taking lenses and after the WWII Schneider provided the Hieidosmat viewing
lenses with the Schneider lenses.

All the best

Your statement was, <n fact the Rolleiflexes with
3.5 taking lens use 2.8 viewing lenses from the first Automat model in
1937>.

This indicated to me, perhaps inaccurately, that
you were saying that all Rolleiflexes from the
Automat onward used identical viewing lenses.

Please clarify.
