Nice view of that Karat 36. Reminds me that I need to get mine out more often.
I don't have shots to hand but a couple of other fine examples of a RF aesthetic are the Kodak folding Retinas, the Nerwin designed 35mm cameras from Zeiss Ikon (http://www.zeisshistorica.org/Nerwin cameras.html) with the Contessa 35 or the Contax IIa being the best, the Voigtlander Vito IIa, and the Canon P.
