On my screen the leather looks to be brown and the camera has a raised 
bit in the middle of the top plate, Leicameter?

Come on Richard, let's have a high res scan of the camera posted.

BTW,  is the sky over Hawaii really so blue? an amazing colour, my fave 
is the observatory shot too, coming in second is the pillow-lava 
covering the road.
cheers
Douglas
