What to keep?

[begona]

I have M3 (CLAd) with Cron DR and M4-2 with 35f1.4 Lux (pre) and I must sell one combination.

I used to M3 and 50mm lenses but this f1.4 on summilux "calls me".

I prefer M3 because it is classic,legend...but m4 is newer...

What would you do if you were on my place?

Thanks

Why CLA it if you're going to sell it? Keep the M3.

I would keep the M4-2 and the lux. You can add back a 50 later to use on the M4-2 later, when funds permit. After all, the 35 "calls" to you, but it can't be so easily shot with the M3. The M4-2 is a more practical body for your needs, so keep it. And you'll probably get more for the CLA'd M3 than the M4-2 anyway.

Disclosure/bias: I am a fan of the M4-2 (M4-P as well).

These days the Summilux 35-pre alone fetches 1500e if it's in good condition..

M4-2 and 35mm would stay because I mostly shoot 35mm and have the option of 50mm. M3 overhauled is worth more too.

I agree... plus there are great cheap 50mm options out there.

Sell the M3 and the 50. You can always and easily replace them.

A good DR is hard to replace.

A pre-asph 35/1.4 is easy to replace, for example by the 35/1.4 Nokton.

Keep the M3 and DR.

I'd follow Roland's advice.
