Funny, yesterday afternoon I was cleaning my Leica MP after some weekend use. A buddy came so went for a dinner. On the way to my car I see two "touristy" looking folks in their 40s (backpacks and all that stuff). I noticed both of them had cameras around their necks. Two silver Zeiss Ikons. Really nice looking cameras. Very modern looking too:)
 
Who knows, perhaps they were.
It's not so usual to see folks walking around with RF cameras. In the last few years I only say one other RF user, who was a trouist with M6. everything around is pretty much digital...
 
I can't imagine using a RF, especially if it were my main camera, and not wanting to be part of a support group, and especially if I owned such a big "F you" to the camera industry like the ZI, MP, or R-D1.
 
I would have approached them. Rangefinder users are like a brotherhood and like to find converts wherever they go.

At least that's been my experience.
