Let's see your Leica M

Imagine the shame...

Imagine the shame...

...of some of us who must put an old, long, CHROME 90mm Elmarit with a black hood on a hulking black M5. The Panda motif is not stealthy. 😱

Thank goodness the Canon 135 is black and just a wee bit larger than the Elmarit.

That is an excellent choice. It looks fantastic and won't show wear easily - which I prefer.

I suspect the black chrome will end up being somewhat rarer than the silver chrome or black paint MP? - I guess it depends on how long the MP is available.

your black chrome MP is an inspiration and just wondering about the matching black chrome hot shoe, as that did not appear in the a la acrte configuration after i selected black chrome. was it some sort of special request? thanks in advance for your advice.

Here's a couple more to wet your appetite. Are you looking for a Summicron 35 (v4) or the Summilux 50 pre-ASPH? If the latter, do not pay those ridiculous prices I see them going for on the big auction site. Call a dealer, check their websites, you can find nice complete sets and new in some cases... cheaper.

haha your evil 😎

Im looking for the 50 lux pre asph, and yes, I watched several ebay auctions go from anywhere between 1100 and 2100, but then I see some of the big online places have them for about 1200 with whatever warranty they supply. Shopping around and waiting to clear my credit card before I go in to debt again.

Let´s see more cameras !

Let´s see more cameras !

Double stroke 1955 M3 and a later type Elmar 2,8/50

In my posession for 1 week straight, we´re still on our honeymoon.

I starting to forget my divorce from an entire M6 outfit (she´s with some french guy now, I´ve heard- it´s all ebay´s fault....)

Stefka, that looks like the mintiest early M3 I've ever seen!
 
Just got this super nice 56' M3 DS today. Pardon the current 50, I will get a vintage model when I see the right one...

A few days ago I found Stefka's M3 the mintiest one I'd seen here, but now I'm not so sure anymore. Jeez guys, where do you find these 50 year olds in such shape?
