sandro Posted November 22, 2021 Share #121 Posted November 22, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Al, is the lens golden as well? A bit difficult to see in the photo. Are people commenting on the camera when you're out using it? Lex Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

a.noctilux Posted June 29, 2022 Share #131 Posted June 29, 2022 M4-2 is still lovely light, and without selftimer lever, handling is as nice as M2/M4-P/M6/MP/M-A (and many LTM Leica ). 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.noctilux Posted July 4, 2022 Share #132 Posted July 4, 2022 😕 How can my M4-2 be so light, 523g ? thinking that the cover and base plate made of brass. Almost 80g less than "same" (well with meter/battery 😉 ) MP at 600g. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madNbad Posted November 3, 2022 Share #133 Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) This is the same M4-2 from post #129. I bought it from Huss and here it is paired with a 28 2.8 Elmarit-M ASPH V1 and a recently arrived Voigtlander finder. Welcome, dear visitor!

madNbad Posted November 4, 2022 Share #135 Posted November 4, 2022 I did buy it from someone who knows how to take care of their gear. The finder came from a 'bay seller in Japan. I placed the order Sunday and it arrived four days latter. On the other hand, the stinky A&A half case is being returned to B&H in New York City. It was sent out on Sunday and has made it as far as Missouri. Same shipper for both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madNbad Posted May 20, 2023 Share #137 Posted May 20, 2023 Since February my M4-2 has been sitting in a repair shop that is going out of business due to health problems. Originally, I was hoping to have a new flash block installed but that didn't happen. When I picked it up, the plastic tip on the advance lever had caught on something and popped the rivet loose. Fortunately, I had just purchaced a solid advance lever from another member. Took it to a different local shop and it took the technician about two minutes to change it. Welcome, dear visitor!

Pyrogallol Posted May 20, 2023 Share #138 Posted May 20, 2023 I bought mine at a local photographica auction, along with an 85mm Summarex, two different lots. The slow speeds are a bit erratic and the frame counter is stuck at the start point but I can put up with that. Welcome, dear visitor!

Almost 80g less than "same" (well with meter/battery 😉 ) MP at 600g. Hello Arnaud, The M4-2 is the replacement for the M4. The M4 weighs 600 grams. Part of the 77 gram difference is the lack of a self timer mechanism & steel gears (specific gravity 7.85). In place of brass gears (specific gravity 8.56). Which means the steel gears weigh approximately 92% of what the brass gears do.

I was in a camera shop many years ago and the salesperson had a 85 Summarex in the case. When he handed to me, I was quite surprised by its weight. Beautiful lens.
