In the scene following Fiennes and Moore's disastrous encounter in a restaurant, a Leica sign hangs prominently above the sidewalk down which she flees. The private detective catches some unlikely telephoto images with what appears to be a IIIf and what is undoubtedly an Elmar 50/3.5. So--another reason to see a pretty decent film.
