Subject: Re: [Leica] Most portable Leica M outfit...

somehow the contax appears to have worked its way into the LUG as an
honorary leica.  (note that its name is never corrupted with asterisks).
whether it is out of grudging respect for the long rivalry (in name at least)
stretching back 75 years, or out of deference to its zeiss lenses, the
contax seems to be a fair-haired boy here.  i use a couple myself.

maybe the correct answer is that fake minox leica III they used to make. :-)
