Many of you helped me on a recent post when I was considering moving from my meterless M3 to an M with a meter. I have tried to follow advice and stick with M3 for a while, but I know I am still feeling cramped (I like to change aperture regulalrly, so there is no 'measure once' effect for me). Having toyed with an M7 or MP for a few months, I've decided to go for a used MP. My first question, is there an early/late issue with the MP (in the same way that I read the viewfinder in early M7 is not so good as the later ones)? Also welcome any other 'check for this' tips when I'm looking at possible purchase. with thanks,

Hey guys! I have a serious problem. I got an used M2 in very good condition from my grandfather as a present. I'm in Australia right now. I wanted to take photos of a waterfall and I accidentally slipped off a rock. I had the camera on a strap for sure but it hit the rock. I'm happy the lens is ok and everything still works except for the Viewfinder. It's black but I still can see the framelines and change them with the lever. I know it's a common problem. The prism is seperated because of the old Canada Balm. Now I have two options...1. I can try to find someone who's able to put it together again and resilver the prism. I'm originally from Germany and there is no one who can do that so I must send it to youxin ye or someone else. The second option is to send it to Leica and get a new fiewfinder. I think they use an M6 Viewfinder for this. I love it there are only 3 different framelines in the old finder. The M6 finder has 6 framelines I think. 28/90, 35/135 and 50/75mm paired together. Now my question : do anyone know if I can use these framelines and all the lenses if I get this finder? Or cant the measurer in the bayonett automatically recognize all the lenses? I think they change nothing on the measurer...I hope you know what I mean. Did someone have the same problem and can give me some Infos on that? Thanks in advance! Greetings Thore Saggau

I use eyeglasses all the time but I think it'd be helpful to have a magnifier for precise focusing, especially when the lens is wide open. I have found mixed reviews about the 1.25x. I'm looking for a magnifier for 50mm and 35mm focal ranges, mostly 50mm. I'd be also nice to know if anyone makes angle viewfinders for 50mm and/or 35mm. I have a 262, so the EVF is not an option.
