Why should/would I want to upgrade?

... I happily moved on to a Zeiss Ikon and have no regrets aside from missing the very solid feel of the M7!

What!?

Coming from someone who has trouble with RF patch white-out (or 'finder flair'), that is very odd. The Zeiss Ikon finder whites out worse than any RF I have ever used. While the finder is large and bright, you must look through the finder perfectly centered in order for the patch to not white-out.

Dave I am in Rome. 80 miles NW of Atlanta. I don't remember discussing this but then again I am scatter brained to the max. I probably will never part with my M6. I loved the feel ofthe M3. I may get another one. I really liked the framelines on it. How is Atlanta for street photography? One of the only times I tried it there I was approached by several pan handlers.

Hey, Cosmo...

I will be in Rome this week...another visit to the CCU where my brother's wife is still being treated.🙁 They have lived in Rome 25 years or so and been up there at least one a week the past month. About a 2 hour drive for me.

How about a cup of coffee (maybe iced in THIS heat!😛) if we can make our schedules work?

Dear OP,

IMHO, stick with your camera and spend the money on fine lenses. 🙂 I'm was in the same boat not too long ago. I wanted to get another body, a MP to be exact, but came to my senses and spent the money on good glass instead. Just learn the strong and weak points of your camera and you should be fine.
