Pas mal du tout !
The MP is my favourite, I regret selling it. Don't worry about changing the skin. I was like your but I ended up liking the original grip so...
Leica does it, lots of serious shops do it (Photosuffren, Procirep) so I don't think it changes anything. I have witnessed it and they simply apply the new fabric. Your MP is not waterproof anyway

Here's my MP again ; i'm considering changing the covering for real leather - but i wonder if it's good for the camera (no waterproof and bad grip i think?)

Yes I see but the M7 also has an on/off switch, no? (it has been awhile since I played with one)The ON/OFF switch says it's a digital. Either M8.2 or M9.
Beautiful design anyway...
What I love is that it's the opposite of this page's first picture, a silver M9 with a 50 2.8 silver.
Both look awesome.

Indeed, but the inscriptions related to the switch (the white inscriptions) differ from the M7 (which has none I think)

Nice !
It's just one of the pinch hoods so I can take it off no problem.

Snorting silver salts
But the front and rear of the hood unscrew so you can fit a filter inbetween!
Still possible?

And my latest M acquisition, an M8 with less than 1000 actuations that i'm really enjoying.

Great ) but do actuations really mean anything in terms of the reliability?

In the digital world it is analogous to highway miles on a car. 1000 miles on a car's odometer sure sounds better than 110,000 miles. So yes it matters.

The lens has to go, sadly

New member here and wanted to share
Just added the thumbs up as well as added a focusing tab on the summicron. Plan on changing the skin next.

My current more streamlined setup:
M4-2
Pre-Asph 35 Summilux
ZM Planar
Pre-Asph 90 Summicron (on its way to DAG for collimation)
Sekonic L398
and lastly my CADPAT backpack which I think no one would assume to be a camera bag, plus it has loads of spare room for film, notepads, and my NEX-7 setup

Lately I have been thinking of selling the M4-2 and the Sekonic and putting the money towards an M6 to streamline things even more, and possibly ditching the 90 in favour of just the 35 & 50. The goal is to have a small and highly capable kit to take with me when I start my new career in the CF this year.
