[rollei_list] Re: OT Re: new Zeiss Ikon- a hollow construct?

Be happy with your Leica, be happy with their very precise telemeter
that never becomes out of adjustment, be happy with the cloth shutter
that never fails and has no risk to melt with the sun, be happy with
their very fast flash sync speed, be happy with the excellent
vulcanite, be happy with the very comfortable and simple way to load
the film, etc, etc. be happy with your Leica and pay a lot for it.-
