I use a 35 GL. Great little thing. Ever so sharp lens and ever so quiet
shutter.

The only problem I have is an inaccurate meter; aside from that, it's a
lovely camera. 

Sincerely,

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.
