R 6.2 mostly I think.IIRC a set of his ACTUAL cameras (that he has indeed worked with) was sold a few years ago by the Viennese (?) auction house that I can't remember the name of. Didn't he donate the money he got for some rain-forest saving thingy?This is a set given to him by Leica, and now it's being sold off again. I doubt any film has gone through that.Quite a humorous pricetag, but then again, anything sold by Photo Arsenal seems to carry a pricetag as exorbitantly high as this one.Actually I may have seen this on sale before, I'm not sure.
