Hmm.. the gold Hasselblad's are a lot more appealing. Actually,
the golden 'Blads are beautiful. The gold LX is pretty ugly, a
camera one would be likely to see in "007 Goldfinger" style of
movie. I don't want one, other than for a quick resale. The
LX 2000, on the other hand, would be nice :-)

Needs an application of snakeskin! Does look different, but if I was getting
