Does also sound like Leica Historical Society of America* yearly meetings.
Camera stacking and all...
With a few less other kinds of cameras floating around.
You do see plenty of those on the tours. Everyone is quite polite about it.

At least at the tables after hours - We take pictures of each other taking
pictures of each other endlessly.
We take picture of the cameras on the table with the booze and the ashtrays and
the coffee cups. I enjoy it.
