Each thread needs some crappy images as well. I'm happy to supply one. Taken with fogged Canon 50 1.8 LTM.
Printed on old Kodak Pro RC IV 8x10 paper, in Dektol. M3 is ELC.

I've had maybe 15 or more M bodies pass through my hands. I still have 3, a black paint M4, an M6 Ti, and my M3. Out of all of these the M3 is the one that I reach for first and I don't even own a 50mm lens 🙂

You don't own a 50?! 😱 😀

 

[LChanyungco]

Not at the moment. The only 50 that interests me is the built-in hood Noctilux and I can't afford that one yet 🙂

My M6 needed (still does) rangefinder calibration, so I bought M3 to have a M body in the meantime. Might not even get the M6 fixed and sell it as it is...

Great work from you all! I am happy to see that the M3 is all but forgotten.

Great thread, and really stunning photos from those contributing here.

I have been shooting my M3 since I bought it in 2011 in Sapporo. In 2013 I had to have some light baffles replaced and at the same time had the speeds adjusted. Other than that it has been great! I shoot it with my M-ROKKOR 90mm and my 5cm Elmar f2.8, and I couldn't ask for a better camera to shoot these two lenses.

A few recent shots with the Elmar:
