[Leica] my contax t is dead as caesar

["Rei Shinozuka" <shino@panix.com>]

:-(

after a short, quick 3 foot trip onto concrete, my beloved contax t
is no longer with the living.  actually, mechanically it appears fine
except the corner near the shutter which looks like the front fender 
of a 61 impala that's met the proverbial concrete bridge abuttment.
the counter shows double dashes and the shutter no longer fires.  

i know there are a couple of "T" afficianados out there... any repair
shop left who can look at the carcass?  i hear contax disowns these 
prodigal sons.  if worse comes to worst, it should be good as a parts 
source; the lens and viewfinders is perfect; prior to my malfeasance
this little gem was a mint -.

p.s. to assuage my loss, i went over to bergen county camera and picked
     up a T3, filter adapter and hood.  without disrespect to the recently
     departed, the T3 is a real hottie.
