This one came back today from Youxin Ye and Robert Jagtisch (CLA and repaint).Sorry abut the wide open approach.
nice you got yours too. looks great without the red dot. my M4-P should get a CLA too, but one at a time! or i would be broke! Mine wants the MP type shutter advance arm, and the viewfinder flare fix upgrade. essex doesnt offer that service, so i prabably have to send it to Sherry Krauter.

Nice! My M3 was rejected because it was too nice looking
Robert was great to email back and forth, and I'll find another M3/2 so I can have a black one too!Can you post some more pictures?--the top and back?

Looks good ! (... even without the red dot
) Is the rewind crank from a Leicaflex SL or M4 ? It looks different to my - standard - M4-P ...

I think the finder is about 650$? + labour alone and my guess would be that not many have a scrapped M6J so they can sell you a used one
Can you just switch those advance levers yourself or would you have to send the camera in?
And btw, I _love the one with the rapid advance thingy and the black M with the chrome style base plate.

Yes you can switch it yourself. It takes about 10 seconds with the right tool.

Watch that step!

Hmm ok then that was just "wishful thinking" I guess.....I`m not used to CLA/Repairs on M and what they cost etc.
Youxin Ye has done all the IIIC`s I have had done in the past, and the price was alot cheaper, so I will just have to ship it out via DAG or Sherry, I guess since it`s a business camera, I better not shortchange myself
- Thanks!Tom

Black M3's. Beauties. I'm new to M's--are these repaints? Shintaro? Robert? I've seriously considered having mine painted black.

After 12 years of using an M6 for personal work I finally did it: instead of going digital I bought an MP, jippeeeehh!!!, wich will hopefully stay with me for years to come. I always longed for a chrome one, having a black M6, but this little gem was only three months old and reasonably priced.
I just love these cameras, they are a joy to use!
Cheers....

Excellent !! I have sold my 35/2.0 black last year but still use a 50/1.4 and the M2 simply rocks !

historicist, Martin, that are two pretty cool shots ! However, I like the one from historicist better because of the Japanese book in the background .... ( Leica lens no ... )
@ historicist: You had an M4-P, before the M4 ? (I remember a photo of yours at flicker taken in Sendai ... )

martin-f5 - aah, the Berlin to Bavaria Thinkpad connection! Lovely camera!
maddoc - yes, I sold the m4p when I found the m4 for a good price (you can see why...). I prefer the chrome look and the rangefinder isn't as prone to flare.
