That really is amazing. Does it still work? When mine was stolen, I had just 
been through Germany. I thought I was SO smart - a non-german speaker, 
and I had found a 2nd hand photo shop and bought a A. Schacht (Ulm) 
Practica-Travegar 1:3.3/100, and a Isco-Gottingen Westron 1:3.5/35. They 
went too. I have many good slides and B&W made with the Practica- it went 
over many a mountain with me, and through many countries.

With 3 lenses, I thought I was the cat's pajamas. 

Losing all that put me off photography for years. Then I bought a Contaflex.

I've idly looked for that model at times and never saw one again.
