Advertisement Posted July 22, 2019 Posted July 22, 2019 Hi lykaman, Take a look here Neil A. Duncan. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Pyrogallol Posted July 22, 2019 Share #22 Posted July 22, 2019 In the 1920’s - 30’s Leitz brought out several new models in quick succession, now we look for the older superceded models. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ru2far2c Posted July 22, 2019 Share #23 Posted July 22, 2019 He may be having fun at our expense. We are having fun too! I'm sure someone out there will give him what he thinks they are worth, nothing. Best of luck finding another range finder system if he is interested in RF's. He can always adapt his lenses to other system with EVF's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhluxton Posted July 23, 2019 Share #24 Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) Back in 2016 after wanting an M outfit for many years I found myself in a position to afford one. Given my budget at the time it was either going to be a new M262 or a used M240. I rationalised at the time that i didn't need live view or the movie function and bought the lower specified M262. Now here is the opportunity to obtain a M240 at a relatively low price - a price quite a bit lower than I paid for the M262. Am I cross? - No! I have seized the opportunity and ordered an ME240 - as I imagine others will have done. Sometimes it can be a bit infuriating when prices appear to come down after one has made a significant investment - but it happens everywhere. Back in 1982 I bought an Acorn BBC Model B computer. Cost £399 for processing unit and keyboard -disk drive, monitors and printers all extra! Today, whilst Acorn computers are no longer with us, one can buy a fairly well specified laptop for £399. It happens everywhere these days! If I was Neil Duncan I would shut up and go and order an ME240! 😃 John Edited July 23, 2019 by jhluxton Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxx71 Posted July 23, 2019 Share #26 Posted July 23, 2019 The OP's post was really funny to me. I really LOL. I doubt he is really that upset at Leica and I sense it was written as partly humorous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith (M) Posted July 24, 2019 Share #32 Posted July 24, 2019 Hmmm, better pull my much under-utilised M240 off the bookshelf and check to see if it has turned into a worthless piece of junk since I last used it... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayernfan Posted July 25, 2019 Share #33 Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) The best thing about digital cameras is last-gen prices! I purchased my M-240 for a price unimaginable to me when it first released. Edited July 25, 2019 by bayernfan Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Well, it literally happened: one week has passed since the last new Sony camera (A7r IV) and another has just been announced. And it’s version 7 of a previous model (RX100 VII).

kivis Posted July 29, 2019 Share #35 Posted July 29, 2019 Recently bought a "used" M 262 (about 1500 clicks) for half the price of the retail cost. Am I happy? hell, yes, I am. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeicaTobin Posted August 10, 2019 Share #36 Posted August 10, 2019 (edited) Alex Webb`s new book will be released late September, I believe most of it was shot on the M9 & M240. Look at that work in that book and consider that the cameras were released in 2009 and 2013 and all that matters is the person using it.

epand56 Posted August 21, 2019 Share #37 Posted August 21, 2019 I'm still having a great fun with my M8 "cheapo crap". And it's far older than 4 years. And my son is also happy to use it, when I use my M240 (again my second "cheapo crap"). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
