Your 50mm Summilux Hood fell off too? That really griped me when it happened to mine (when I still had the lens). Odd that it's held on by that one solitary screw. DAG provided me with a new screw to hold it tight though and it didn't happen again after that.
Beautiful combo otherwise!

A quick teaser of my newly acquired Leica M7 0.85 with updated MP finder. Still need a lens. Leaning toward a VM Nokton 50/1.5 in chrome!

I know a few people this has happened to as well.

Erik,
Is it an original BP body?
Yes, it is a conversion by Leitz made in the early seventies (the serial number is not from a batch of black cameras) made on demand to match a Noctilux 50mm f/1.2 . The paint type is the same as of a black M4.
The method of engraving the serial number is the giveaway: no spaces.
Those conversions are very rare, only a few were made, as the cost of them was astronomical.
The lens is an original black paint one, however.
Erik.
