I haven't kept a close eye on London shop prices recently, but what I
have seen seems much the same as it always was. If there has been a
Leica M price fall could it be because of the MP, rather than digital?
When one of the London dealers first told me about the MP he said
Leica were bringing it out because the good prices and brisk trade in M3s
indicated a healthy market for an all-mechanical M. Perhaps a drop in
the used market shows that they were right.
