B: Is this a Leica? H: Yes. B: How old is that thing? H: More than 30 years. B: And what are you doing with it? H: Taking pictures for the 'Examiner'. B: C'mon - without motor ? H: I'm speaking about quality, not quantity. Hunter looks at his camera (M2 with rewind lever and chrome 2/35 Summicron), adjusts aperture and distance, and takes a picture of the boy in the court room's corridor. Without flash. Of course. I like the scene. Hunter is pretty proud of his M2, as known from more early episodes. He bought it some years ago, when he was in the army near Munich.
