Marc,

Thanks for those interesting links to German camera history I do think the Contax S family is one of the prettiest SLRs of all times* - if it only had worked as well as it looked...

Hmm. I do respect Peter greatly as a scholar and I know his monograph and have discussed it with him. But, to the contrary, I've yet to see a Contax S that was not limping along quite well. I've never seen one which had died. I just ran my own Contax D through the chimes, and it works quite well, after all these years.
