M240 owners - what other Leica cameras do you own?


Recommended Posts

M in both chrome and black. MM. Over the years, M6x3, M7, M8 M8.2, M9. Too many lens to remember that I bought traded or sold. Current stable is the best I have ever owned. Now retired so will not be selling or trading much. I tried to get everything situated before retiring......:cool:

Digital:

 

Canon 5D2 - with couple of fast primes for low light concert/stage photography also when auto focus is a must. Rarely used otherwise.

Fuji X100 - love/hate relationship with this one. Good as a small travel companion.

 

Film:

 

M6 TTL (my favorite, but don't tell my M240)

Olympus XA2 - had since new (30 years?) - still a solid zone focus camera - about as small as you can get.

Pentax P30t - first SLR and still used - where else can you get sharp 50mm 1.7 prime for less than £10? Small and plastic so very light!

Olympus 35RC and 35DC Rangefinders - such good fun!

M6

M8.2

M-E

M 240

 

The one that doesn't fit is the M-E (M9). I tend to skip every other model (the odd models). The reason I have an M-E was because I used it while waiting for an M 240. After the M came, I could not sell the M-E. It is a fine complement to the M. I can't sell the M8.2 either -- love its B&W. Tom

 

P.S. I've been guilty about having too much Leica. Now I see that I'm a lightweight within this group.

Have:

M3 silver - will never be sold

M7 black - will never be sold

M240 - for me the almost perfect digital M

 

Nikon D700

Nikon F4 - not used any more, but will keep it

 

On my wish list: next generation MM...

I'm not quite at that level, but at least for the M series, it is easier for me to name the standard models (i.e., not including scientific/military/photojournalist/special edition models) I don't have or have never owned:

 

M4-P, M4-2, CL, CLE, M6 ("classic"), MP, M8.2, M-E.

 

I have every leica model and lens ever made.
