Which M4 less expensive?

[borismach]

HI! Everybody,

Understand there are versions of Silver Chrome, Black Chrome and Black Anodised. Is that correct?

Want to know which one is of less rarity, so I know which cheaper one I could go for. BTW I prefer to have one in black color.

Thanks for any advice.

Cheerz,
🙂 bm

There is silver chrome, black chrome, and black paint. Given equal condition, the price increases just in that order.

In general: black chrome and anodized is the same. Black enamel (paint) is the most expensive.

M4 is generally more expensive than M4-P, which is more expensive than M4-2.

For the M4 chrome is the "cheapest", for the M4-2 and M4-P chrome is more expensive than black chrome.

There have never been black paint M4-2s or M4-Ps.

Beaters are the least expensive.

Typically very sharply, too.

M4 Chrome - CHEAP

And CHEAP here translates to >800 USD for a beater in desperate need of a CLA!

I would completely use that camera.
Any M4 is an M4 to me.

For $200. more get an M6 with a built in meter.
Leave the battery out and you'll have the best of both worlds. 😉

M4 VF > M6 VF

M4 VF > M6 VF

plus:
M4 brass > M6 zinc
M4 ST > M6
M4 is... uhh... just more beautiful 🙂

If on a budget, get an M4-2. I decided to keep mine when I stumbled over a winder.

The M4-P is cheaper than the M4 and have in fact the same build quality!

The M4-P feels even more stronger...

How does the thread justify your statement?? I have both of them, and I like my M4P too. But it is clearly that MP-P is not stronger than M4, and they do not have same build qualtiy. I will be surprised if people who own both of them would agree your conclusion.
