Black Paint M4 with Leicavit and a DAG modded 50 summilux V1 for super quick focusing.

Thanks! I love this len’s, too. According to the serial number, it was manufactured in 1970

Then it is not a v1.

I think you may have been responding to the wrong post. Mine is a 1970. Ororaro’s post mentioned he had a v1 🙂

I've owned M3s, M6s, MPs and M9s. Was looking at an M4 but this came up and struck a deal with the seller. Has to be one of the smoothest operating Ms I've ever owned. So happy the M4 deal fell through.
