Hoffmann, Adolf's personal exclusive photog for a dozen years was always
said to have used a Rolleiflex as Adolf thought he was too big for 35mm.
 Here he is portrayed as using a Leica the whole time. Which was it?
The Allies (that's us) grabbed all his negs he died in poverty in 1957.

And the gray card is not really gray.
