My Rolleicord IV has always been a favorite of mine
because it still has the focusing knob on the right, so I
don't have to switch the camera back and forth between my
hands to focus and then wind the film. Its light weight
also seems rather miraculous.

At some point I weighed several cameras. I can't find my
notes but think my Rolleiflex "old standard" was the
lightest with the Rolleicord IV being only slightly heavier.
The heaviest of the Rolleis was the 2.8E as might be
expected. I think the old standard was the lightest of all
the cameras I have with the trivial exception of a couple of
ancient box cameras.
BTW, does anyone know a good Leica tech in the Los
Angeles area who will work on a IIIC? I know there was a
fellow in the SF valley but I understand he moved back to
Germany or died or something of the sort.
