But, Moose is mostly correct, since the mirrors are NOT in the path from
the lens to the film. They are only in the focusing mechanism of the
viewfinder.
At least that is true for my IIIa and IIIf, dating as early as 1935.

Well, I'm unsure about that. Focussing was assisted by "mirrors"
since 1932, at least in their RF system(s) ;-)
I sit corrected. ;-)
