  During my three weeks travel in California, Utah , Nevada etc.., visiting
  S-F, Yosemite,
  Death Valley, Brice, Zion, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, Hollywood,etc.. (some
  of the places the most photographied in the world) I have seen thousand of
  cameras and ...
  only 1 Leica M3 on a Japanese (together with a Contax G) and one R5 on a
  French.
  Is that all folks ?!
  Do you have only collectors in the US ?  :-)
  
  (BTW : +/- 7 Hasselblad, 5 F5,15 F90/N90, 7 EOS 1 etc..)
