This reminds me that when I was in export in the late '50s we used to
arrange shipments of cameras to New Zealand from a firm in France called
Ercsam S.A. I've never otherwise heard of them; does anybody know what they
made/make? I recall that around 500f the cameras were returned as faulty.
(Must've been irksome for the importers!)
