Hi Marc:

If I might add:

The factory in Japan is a Zeiss factory using Japanese Zeiss workers and
Zeiss inspection methods and criteria.

One other point... I thought that Porsche Design had a lot to do with the
bodies.  And I'm not sure that Dr. Sugaya (who pioneered the Vacuum Back)
works for Yashica.  I think he is a Kyocera employee.

Regards,
Michael
