It's the reason I've kept the Z-I Contax IIIa and Rollei 35S. Neither sit
pretty on a shelf; both are periodically used. There are times when an
SLR, 35mm OM or MF M645, just doesn't feel like the right tool for the task
and one or the other of them is put to use. Been tempted a couple of times
to sell one or the other, but thinking about how both of them have simply
felt better suited (and are likely to continue to) has always squelched the
idea.
