Hello all,

Could anyone confirm if Rolleinar 1 Bay 1 be used on a 4x4 Baby Rolleiflex?
(I really hope the answer is affirmative. It would be so cool!)

Yes, if it is the post-war model with bayonets on both lenses. I have done it.

I use off brand bay I closeup lenses interchangeably on my Baby and Automats without any problems.

Postwar baby, yes. Prewar, no, because the viewing lens doesn't have a bayonet mount and the lenses are too close together.

Mine is a grey Baby Rolleiflex so should be postwar.
