Very nice, BUT the Voigtlaender accessory shoe meter should be chrome and mounted on your M2, as the CL has an inbuilt meter :).

Is there such a thing as too many meters? :confused:

I sold my backup MP, which I never used and only sat on the shelf, and now I regret it. Funny though, the week after I sold it, the M I used since 2003 jammed. First problem ever with this camera. It unjammed by itself, but maybe it's time to have it cleaned.

Steve, did it jam with advancing?

 

I've had that happen from misloading the film.

 

If the canister is not completely seated the film advances on a slant until it binds. You're advancing just fine then WHAM! it's stuck tight as concrete. Just open the bottom and unload the whole mess (lose the pics, of course, but this usually happens early on).

My M7 once jammed solidly. I opened it and luckily I saw a piece of film caught between the curtain the the inside of the body.

I understood I have to cut my bulk film more carefuly or the film chips will ruin my cameras.

Yes, that's exactly what happened. I loaded a roll of film very quickly to capture something, but I ended up catching nothing, because of the temporary jam.

Come to think of it, that's how I unjammed it -- rewound the film and opened up the back. The mystery is solved. In almost sic years of use, that's the the first problem with the camera. But not I see it was 'human error.'

On my way out the door to try my new version 15mm received on Thursday. :)
