Advertisement Posted October 2, 2010 Posted October 2, 2010 Hi JBA, Take a look here I love my MP. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
BRJR Posted October 3, 2010 Share #1782 Posted October 3, 2010 I ordered a black one yesterday from a dealer in Stockholm Sweden. Used in a mint condition and for fair price as well. It should be delivered tomorrow. So excited 1. I ordered a black Leica MP, as well. Purchased it at Adorama.com, in New York City, USA. It should ship on Monday (04 Oct 2010) and I should have it on Tuesday (05 Oct. 2010), since I ordered with overnight delivery. 2. Adorama.com, appear to have other Leica MP Bodies in-stock (both Black and Silver), as seen at this link: leica mp - Adorama.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealth3kpl Posted October 13, 2010 Share #1785 Posted October 13, 2010 My poor, injured MP rests in its hospital bed after being dropped whilst trekking in the Yellowstone wilderness. Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! The damage: She still seems to be functioning perfectly though. I took my M6 and MP to Yellowstone. I have to say I definitely prefer the solid feel of the MP. I'm not keen on the plastic film advance lever of the M6, or the delicate feel of the rewind knob. Somehow, the MP feels smaller in my hands Link to post Share on other sites Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

rob139 Posted October 21, 2010 Share #1795 Posted October 21, 2010 Congratulations! Good luck with it. What does the '4' in the MP4 mean? Rob 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill Posted October 21, 2010 Share #1796 Posted October 21, 2010 Thank you all. I cannot wait to run a first roll through it. Rob, the "4" means that it only has 4 framelines; 35/135, 50 and 90; one of the main reasons why I went a la carte. The advantage is that the 50 and 90 framelines are "standalone". I sold my M2 to afford this, and this was the nearest modern equivalent to the classical M2 framelines. My M7 is a .85 too, but still has the 75mm framelines. Between the two, I have all that I want or need. Happy now... Regards, Bill 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
