Hi Art!
It has something to do with the way the camera works.... perhaps it
"self-nulls" when no cam is present. I dunno.
I think it comes under the category of "Magic Action".
To the advertising boys, on Madison Ave. (the only people to actually
use such a phrase), the definition of "Magic Action" is "When the
engineers explained ... nobody understood."
I do know that I go the information from Gerry Smith, Head of Leica
Service at Kindermann, Toronto, and it seems to be accurate.
F'rinstance, my old SL 2x converter had a "null cam" added by Gerry,
for use with my R5 & R6. But my Telyt 400 didn't need (and has not
got) one, for by the time I bought it I was on to the R8.
Sorry I cannot tell you more.
