bayerische Posted September 17, 2007 Share #1 Posted September 17, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) So here she is, the M2 I've been talking about. 260euro she cost me. Not much. Going to go for a walk with some slide film loaded, and after this I'll know how well she does. Junk or Beauty? Let's see! Welcome, dear visitor!

Advertisement Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Hi bayerische, Take a look here Here's the beauty or junk, depends.. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Mark Antony Posted September 17, 2007 Share #2 Posted September 17, 2007 Well, at that price all looks beautiful. here's my junker: I paid a little less for mine, but it had no lens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayerische Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share #3 Posted September 17, 2007 The lens was not included. Body only. The lens was just put on to make a nice complete camera. If the Lux would have been included, now that would have been a STEAL! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayerische Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share #4 Posted September 17, 2007 Well just developed the first Slide film and.......................... She's a BEAUTY! It works perfectly. No leaks, times seem to be spot on! A few frames were exposed wrong, seems I need to practise with the handheld meter after all! I've used handheld meters quite a lot, but it never hurts to exercise.

bayerische Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share #6 Posted September 17, 2007 Thanks Dan, The picture don't do the camera justice, since the Vulcanite on the back of the camera is a lot more worn than on the front. I followed a fellow forum members suggestion and ordered some cameraleather. This one: Cameraleather - Colors and materials Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

earleygallery Posted September 18, 2007 Share #11 Posted September 18, 2007 Andreas, It doesn't look bad at all - not the later style film advance lever! I'd say you got a bargain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should look good on chrome lens. -Ron ________________ Caveman's Gallery Neolithic Artistry Absolutely! And thanks again for the link! I ordered it yesterday, and once shipped it should take around 5-6 days to get it here. I'm off to the US on the 30th this month, hopefully I get it before that, but one thing is for sure. I'll brag about my Blue M2 here once it's done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
