Name all M-mount cameras...

[hoot]

Are there all M-mount cameras in existence, or did I miss any?

Leica M series
Leitz-Minolta CL
Minolta CLE
Konica Hexar RF
Bessa T
Bessa R2, R2a, R3a


Reason for making this list? I just bought a 40/2 M-Rokkor and am looking for a low-cost backup body to mount it on. (Yes, I realize most of these bodies don't have 40mm framelines.) Unfortunately I'm limited to M-mount bodies because this lens only exists in M-mount, as does the C/V 40/1.4 Nokton. :bang:

Low Cost: You have it.

High-end, New Zeiss Ikon and RD-1.

Leica CL is a great Back-up body. Drop it into a slot where a lens would fit in the camera case with the M3.

Leica did market (early in the digital game) an "M" mount digital back, of the scanning type.
That was a complete "camera" so to speak, just of the "scanning" type, rather than the instant exposure type.

Let is also not forget the almost here, new Zeiss-Ikon, which is an "M" mount body.

Also the Roelli "clone" of the Bessa R2. Some dealers still have them at reduced prices.

Lowest cost body on that list is the Bessa-T, which is one helluva camera. You'll need the CV 40mm viewfinder for it, though, which might bring the price up near the level of a CL/CLE. Kind of a toss up, I guess.
