Subject: [Leica] OT: Minox 35

The Minox 35's lens is related to the Elmars. Leitz designed it back in the 
'80s. Also, Minox makes a digital in the form of the M3. There is no formal 
Minox users group. If enough of LUGGERs use a Minox 35 from time to time, we 
might discuss it.
I use a GT. Two points: It seemed to have had a hazy viewfinder from the day 
I got it. And it's a camera that must be used; otherwise the shutter will 
freeze up. Some say the oil congeals if the camera is stored on its back.
But the Minox 35 certainly has character, as do Leicas.
