I know the 3B has been described as both 11.5" and 12". I think it is the earliest models which are the shortest. Dallmeyer did not give focal lengths (efl or back focus) in early catalogues/adverts. My "knowledge" is just what I have read. All 4 3Bs I have played with were all 12". Perhaps the earlier 2B's were also slightly shorter?
