thank you

Family is growing here as well. Unfortunately my M6 was on sick leave when the picture was taken as it suffers from a defect frame counter. Had made a few minor changes from the standard model on the new member.

Nice to see the BP/silver lens combi.

For some a 'heresy' but I love it!

Hello Sumolux,

 

Not heresy. It just makes it look like a Nikonos. Or a Calypso, for that matter.

 

Best Regards,

Hello guys, I want to ask you if there is any diference with "quality" or construction changes between older serial numbers 2939xxx and newer 4666xxx? I saw something about sealed viewfinder etc., is it true?

 

Thanks, jakub

Jakub,

 

It's true, and not a big deal.  I own four of the first-run MPs (don't ask), and they did suffer from dust ingress around the eyepiece, but Leica cleaned and sealed them for free.

 

Enjoy.

Fan of that combo too (black body with silver lens)

I did something not entirely rational and sold my M6 to fund this lovely, lightly used MP. Only two and a half years old, which leaves me with two and a half years of warranty. That is really nice. It is from 2015 and I quite like the newer engraving on the back saying "Leica Camera Wetzlar Made In Germany". I was eyeing an MP ever since I started with my father's godfather's M5 about ten years ago. This MP and my silver M4 make a perfect set and I feel like this might be the last film M I ever buy. Suffice to say, I love it.

Congratulations. It's a beautiful camera.

To me this sounds entirely rational.

Beautiful MP! Depending on where you're located though the warranty isn't transferrable unfortunately (at least not in the United States, which I think is a silly rule). Regardless, that's a beautiful camera and I hope you enjoy it!

Interesting. Luckily I am based in the EU where it is transferable.

Why is it so difficult to find a new black MP .72 today? Are they not making enough?

Is it ? I hope not, I'm planning on getting one soon. I have made up my mind and will get the MP rather than an M-A.

[adli]

I got mine in November last year. They are still making them if you order one :-)

Hallo,

Look here: Leica M

I think everyone is sitting on his. Why should one sell this camera? is there a more beautiful or better one?
