I never had a Baby Rollei so I am very interested in your
experiences with it.

I went forward with my threat to purchase a Baby Rolleiflex. I went with one of the originals, I believe third model, with 2.8 Tessar. Wow! I did it without benefit of ever having actually seen or handled one, live. I am pumped. I have not been this excited about a new camera since I purchased my first Barnack Leica. As far as that sense of initial wonderment goes, when you first contemplate the genius of design and quality of construction, I think this thing beats out the Barnack. I still can’t get over how small it is. The thing seems to work perfectly. I have a roll of ReraPan 400 loaded so I guess I should quit gushing and shoot.
Best,
Wayne---
