 came back to my room and
the Nikon with a lovely hole burned in the shutter.



Wasn't the shutter in the SP titanium?   I guess they could burn a hole....
but the fabled and elusive Zeiss Contax, that penultimate of RF cameras, had
a vertical metal shutter.  Better to ward off those nasty light rays!

Now the silk shutter cords were a bit fragile.
