They were in a glass cabinet with a bunch of dirty "explorer's gear" near the front of the queue for the Indiana Jones ride. Both were dirty, and had apparently been dirtied on purpose. Both had lenses attached; the one in front had what looked at a quick glance to be a collapsible Elmar. The one in back was in an open ERC, but I didn't have time to get a look at the lens - - -- at Disneyland the line moves constantly, and we all must march. The cameras were not for sale; they were part of the scenery. Personally, I was quite disgusted to see IIIc's used in this way. At least they could have been Feds. - - -Patrick
