Sorry if that's already posted - still catching up with the messages - but make mine Mx and M lenses. The Leica may be a masterpiece of engeneering from the past - dad owns two and I used both when young - but nothing beats framing what the film will see later, meaning SLR.

If the manual-only Mx looks too simple or too expensive, the Me Super and company would fit perfectly, as long as used in manual mode... and the user manages to preview the DOF, even by slightly un-winding the lens until it closes the blades.

Mike Johnston's little ode to simplicity and the Leica as a teacher.

I'm seriously thinking about giving the basic concept a try. Not with
a Leica though, but rather with either a Yashica FX-3 or Nikon FM2n
and a fast normal. I don't feel like paying the Leica tax and my FX-3
in particular cost less than the eBay/Paypal transaction fees on even
a cheap M.
