Advertisement Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Hi otto.f, Take a look here Internal differences between M2 and MP. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!

Im definitely aware of the functional differences between them. I guess, if I were to phrase the question another way (and this might sound ridiculous), but - What I’m trying to determine is whether the Leicas of old were only made a certain way because that’s the technology they had at the time, or whether they are made a different way now because capitalism etc.. has changed the way we work? Meaning, employees simply can’t put the same amount of effort/time into things now because companies have to pay people more fairly and so you just can’t attain the same level of craftsmanship these days? In other words, if the workers of Leica’s yesteryear had access to today’s machines/tolerances, would they use them or would they scoff at them? And yes, this is purely about the pleasure I derive from conceptual, mechanical craftsmanship, as opposed to how good my photos will be (but it is still very important to me, nonetheless!) Thank you, again! You answered your question. In my view it’s important to love your camera, perhaps not so much for the difference in image quality between M2 and MP, but in what you see, what strikes you and what you shoot. If your relation with your camera is mediocre, you won’t bother to take it out of your bag. If I read between the lines the M2 does it for you.
