A Japanese company is making a miniature Leica IIIf that takes Minox film.
It is even inscribed E. Leitz G.M.B.H., Wetzlar. It is basically a toy.
They also make a miniature Nikon F that takes Minox film. Also a toy. KSP
has already had and sold one of the Nikon - Minox toys.

The color brochure says SHARAN. I don't know if that is the manufacturer,
the distributor, or what. And I really don't care as they are truly toys.
