Hello Marc,

	I am not entire sure that it is a 6x7 - the shop owner said that the
person he bought it from told him it was a 6x7.

	To keep this on a Leica theme - there are more used R bodies and lenses
showing up in the market here - no R8's though.  For what it's worth you
can buy a brand new Nikon F5 for Nepal Rupees 110,000 (US$1,710.00) and
there is a surplus of Nikon gear so prices for lenses and other bodies are
also good.
