I read that article and found it found it interesting. Maybe I should get
into the import/export business?

In the September issue of Shutterbug there's a piece on the used camera
market in Tokyo. I find it a little amusing that any camera considered a
"classic" there has to have been made in Germany, or at least in Europe or
the U.S. (Yeah, I'll take a Medalist, please, if you've got one.) Looks
like just more of the grass is greener, familiarity breeds contempt, we make
it here and we know it ain't special, etc., etc.
There also was mention in the article, however, of ubiquitous
"Nicanolympaxes." Since they're so common, they should be cheap. Could the
next person in Tokyo please pick me up one of those?
