Rolleiflex 4 x 4 - Baby Rollei Camera in Box

This Rolleiflex 4 x 4 - Baby Rollei in Box is one of the nicest vintage cameras I have had the pleasure to view.  I don't believe it has ever been used, at least from the overall condition it appears that way.

From the Rolleiflex 6 x 6, which from the beginning set the pattern for development of the twin-lens camera reflex camer, the Rolleiflex 4 x 4 has taken the basic principle of its construction.  Two separate cameras are joined by means of a common sturdy die cast body, to make a twin camera:  below, the taking camera for exposing the film and above, the view camera, using the relecting mirror principle. The special function of the viewing part of the twin camera is to permit focusing on the ground glass and to supply a control image essentially similar to the wanted picture. 

Both Lenses have the same focal length (f + 60mm, angle of picture = 52 degrees) for the certain focusing of both the viewing and taking parts of taking parts of the camera. 

The taking lens, Schneider Xena 1: 3.5, is a three section, four glass lens (modified Taylor type), with excellent correction for black and white and color photographs. 

The three glass Heidosmat 1 : 2.8 viewing lens is especially designed to suit the requirements for critical ground glass focusing.  Both lenses have abrasion resistant antireflction coatings.  The double bayonet rings around the lenses are for attaching the lens hood and optical lens accessories and to hold them in optically correct and firm positions.  The same size (Size I) filters, lens accessories and Rolleiflash which fit the 6 x 6 cm Rollie Xenar 3.5, Tessar 3.5 and Triotar camera models also fit the Rolleiflex 4 x 4.

You also receive with this camera the Adams Ejector Pocket Flash unit.
