Marc:

Thanks for the heads-up.
The URL for anyone interested is:

The Nikon you mention must have been, at least originally, a rangefinder.
Though maybe it's in the LUG archives, would you care to re-explain to 
the naifs amongst us how or why some photojournalists chose the Leica, 
some the Contax, others the Nikon (rangefinders)?
