my most recent leica happens to be a IIIf.  though i have not shot too 
many rolls through it so far, i have "immortalized" this particular IIIf 
on wikipedia:

i have only three examples of LTM glass: the summarex, summaron, and 
summarit.  (i thought it would be interesting to have earlier designs
roughly corresponding to the M-mounted 75 summilux, collapsible 50 
summicron and 50 summilux with which i had experience on my Ms.)

also a rapidwinder and LTM viso for esoteric entertainment, voightlander 
vc meter for practicality, late model VIOOH "8.5 version" for aiming
the summarex.
