I owe you apologize. And I said ignorance since that Leica model was on the Forgotten Land for me. I did not know any about that camera.

This mail will to you directly and a copy to the List. I hope this will end this misunderstanding coming and originated from my part. A new lesson was learned by me. Kind regards Pablo
