used m6 and 1 lens, or new r2a/m and 2 lenses?

The m6 all the way, one would be mad to choose the cheap bessa over this rugged camera!

Thanks for the great advice everyone! I ordered my gear today! I ended up going with an M4-2, the 35mm f1.4 sc, a 90mm f4 elmar, 90mm finder from cameraquest, and a gossen digisix meter. I will hopefully have a couple of test snaps to post here in a couple of weeks, if people don't mind walmart scans 😉

Thanks again to everyone here on the forum, your advice has been very valuable, and I am sure it will continue to be in the weeks and months ahead.

Good for you, Merkin - enjoy the new kit!

I'll throw in my 2 cents. Regardless of what equipment you eventually settle on I have found it's good to start with a one camera one lens combo for a awhile and use it until it becomes an extension of how you see. Then you have a better idea of what you want the next piece of gear to accomplish for you.

Best of luck with what ever combo you end up choosing.
