Hi Stephen:
                   The issue about the "shift up" background is not
perceptible clearly with the Rolleinar 1, but it must be an issue with
2 and 3 as you wrote.
I have seven photographs taken with the Rolleinar 1 at Flickr, most of
them about Rollei and Contax II photographic equipment:
