My late father - also a Leica user - used to swear that he was convinced
that the motor drive was invented by an engineer in Rochester and was then
quietly slipped to the Japanese, who then sold it back into the U.S. where
it to this day eats up enormous quantities of film manufactured
in....Rochester, N.Y. :)
