I might not be done

Blake, John said he'd take all the blame. :)

Sale pending on Chris' M5, but that's okay, mine's got to be black.

It's impossible to ever be satisfied! Even if you owned every single piece of Leica equipment ever produced, you'll still wonder "Maybe I should get two..." :D
 
Mike, thanks for that observation. I used the 500CM recently to so some family portraits and found it difficult to focus even though it has an up-graded bright screen - this is due to my aging eyes, and I found the MF RF camera I was using as well, much easier to focus. I've got MF covered with other cameras so the Hasselblad can go to satisfy this new urge. A man has urges, right?
 
So what's so special about the M5 that it's got to be black? What's wrong with a chrome one?

Wow, is that black IIIf real?

Back to the M5. I know the feeling. I wanted a set of black and chrome. I'm not there yet. I prefer my cameras not to be chrome.

Brian, you are correct.

Brian, you are correct.

Frank, Frank, Frank...

I remember when the M5 came out. And when the M4 was re-introduced because of the backlash.

M4.... MMMMmmmmmmm

M5. Isn't that the Computer that went wild and took over the Enterprise?

Yes, it was. I haven't seen Star Trek TOS in years...
 
hmmm.. maybe Frank will start an M5 craze to counter the Nikon rf craze happening on this forum.
& just like what that producer told George Harrison in the movie" a Hard Day's Night" about the grotty shirts.
you can develop an inferiority complex if you do not own an M5.." Sunny Jim ".

My S2 swiped the Sonnar from the Contax. Keep an eye on yours.

so far, i have only seen images from the czj 50/2 and they are lovely.

the cz 50/1.5 and the nikkor 50/1.4 are still a mystery to me.

M5's are evil. Don't get one. #1350177 has eaten my soul and taken over my body.
