Ken -
     Back in the old days when I had to wear a suit coat or jacket,  
 I preferred to carry the virtually indestructible Mod. II(D) as it had
 no protruding strap lugs. It didnt have flash synch, but that was 
 no loss for me since IMHO - Leicas are for available light.  I just
 slipped the little black beauty in my coat pocket and the 35mm
 Elmar (which only stuck about an inch, gave me a little added
 room when used with the II(D)s viewfinder.

 If you really want small, rugged and light I suggest a IIf or IIIf with a
 50mm f3.5 Elmar. One of these is with me nearly all the time.
