In August, 1969, I purchased a Leicaflex SL - MOT w/ motor, bellows extension-R with Makro Elmar f4/100mm lens, and 7 other lenses from FOTO KOCH at the Frankfurt airport. Paid DM 10,876 (US$ 2,719). (per invoice) Using a WWW inflation adjustment program at URL: http://woodrow.mpls.frb.fed.us/economy/calc/cpihome.html I learned that in today's US$s, that would be US$11,928.00 !!! So don't go wild when offered big money for equipment purchased many years ago. Inflation is insidious!! Regards, Harry Bass HWBass@HBRF.ORG !!!!
