Greg,

I use a IIIf RD and a IIIa, with the Elmar 5cm 3.5 and Summitar 5cm 2.0,
along with occasional use of a "Brand X" 135mm.  These are my primary
rangefinder cameras.  I prefer a simple old Pentax Spotmatic for SLR,
especially for long focal length lenses.  I recently had a CLA on the
Summitar because the diaphram was getting stiff, but the IIIa and Elmar
have had no attention since 1952.

Great cameras!
