Speaking of Ebay...and this is not about Ebay, but somehow seems related...
I was sitting in the bathroom perusing a Yankee Magazine last night and in
the "Swop" column, saw the following listing...
"Will swop a Leica R6 twin-lens reflex 35 mm camera, with 35 and 80 mm Zeiss
lenses, for handheld, ideally pocket-size, camera of comparable optical
quality with a telephoto lens."

Wow! I wonder what the TLR Leica R 8 is worth with those Zeiss lenses?!
Marc, do you know anything about the history of this unique item? ;-)
