I can sense the feeling of the guys

who were so proud to have a Leica MP or Leica M6.

I have a strong desire to tell you, how proud I be, to have a Leica M7 with a matching silver Tri-Elmar!

Looks good, how is your first version tri-e in therms of mechanical dependability.

I've got the second version, working well but it feels delicate in the hand instead of industrial like the other M lenses.

BTW, a Leica M, any. is a tool to be proud of when you own one, even if you use it daily as I use mine it's again and again a pleasure to handle.

My original (black chrome) TE needed to have the frameline actuator mechanism adjusted after eight years.

 

A word of advice for anyone needing to have theirs adjusted - send it directly to Solms. The staff in New Jersey lacks the expertise to deal with these lenses.

I'm a proud M7 owner. That shutter sound it has is amazing. Love the quickness of the camera: point to where you want to meter, press the shutter half way, recompose and boom--done.

 

Impossible camera to use without getting fingerprints on the windows!

I dont say 'chrome' to those things!

Leica-Finish seems to me like silver! However the bumpers of a car I call chrome:

I really don't understand the lack of love for the M7... AE if you're feeling lazy or just 'need' to get the shot, and for some of us 'newbies', the shutter-speed dial's on the right way round! :eek:

 

So I'll say it loud and proud... "I love my M7!"
