Ansel Adams?s assistant, Liliane Decock Morgan, was given an Arca-Swiss 4 x 
5 by Adams, and now it, along with a trove of Leica equipment that?s part of 
the collection, will be auctioned July 9. Along with the 4 x 5 that?s 
estimated to bring $150,000 to $300,000, there is an extensive collection of 
everything that was photographically desirable in the late1960s to about 
2000. Many Leicas, lenses, accessories, and Rollei, Zeiss, Nikon S, etc. 
It?s worth seeing the catalog PDF.
