Camera for Mountain Climbing

[NikoSperi]

Only two cameras come with me to Chamonix: Sinar F2 (Sherpa not included) or Leica. Guess which one comes climbing, and which one travels à la Ansel Adams on the roof-deck of my car?

So, what is he taking / did he take on his climb?

The jury is still out. However, the Rollei 35 is a front runner (probably the 'B' variant as it's cheaper and doesn't rely on batteries).

Whatever he decides on he'll probably also be borrowing my Olympus mju II 135 PAS as a backup.

Once again, many thanks to everyone for their contributions! Very much appreciated!
