Thanks for the link!

Plus 6x6 and 24x36 slide projectors, as others have already mentioned. With
20 employees... that's a far cry from the 2.500 who used to work for the
old F&H, and what they can build will be a far cry from the technical
excellence of the 6000 series - a few golden TLRs and Rollei 35 for the
collectors' market.
