Do all models of the Kodak Nagel Retina Reflex: Reflex, Reflex S, Reflex III and Reflex IV (I've never heard of a Reflex II ) take the same lens mount?
Thanks

G'day Jay, the original Retina Reflex (type 025)uses type C lenses, like the Retina IIIc folder. The Reflex S, III, and IV use type S lenses, real fully-interchangeables, unlike the type C in which only the front group was swapped. The S series lenses were also used in the Instamatic reflex and the Retina IIIS rangefinder camera.
There was no Retina Reflex II.

These lenses can be made to fit the Voigtlander Bessamatic / Ultramatic with a little machining. Not all of the lenses have the cam which operates the rangefinder on the non-reflex Retina IIIS.
There are a few other cameras which use the Deckel bayonet mount.

And the range of lenses were 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm, 135mm and 200mm. Made by both Schneider Kreuznach and Rodenstock. Other companies made accessories for these like a 2x telextender and I had a Japanese built 200mm once. |
