Pardon my slightly bitter tone, but what's up with Leica meters?
Are they ALL "dead" after 40 years ?
One vendor on e-Bay referred to their late collector/father as a "completist", so I guess that would define me too, when it comes to camera gear...
I have been looking for a Leica exposure meter to go with my screw-mounts, but they all seem to be "dead"... (Jim),
And yet the lowly GE and Westons from the same era seem to survive in great numbers, still in working order... and you can have as many as you want for less than $20 a piece.
With all the dead Leica meters out there, is there anyone with a little cottage industry putting new photocells in them ?
😕
