I slowly convinced myself I needed to try a Leica (was hard actually).
I don't wanna try alternatives *before* the M, if the M is nice but
doesn't justify the cost, I'll look into Voigtlander and such.
So, fot those who indeed shot with an M, what should I look for?
Buying new is out of the questi
If you're using film, forget about a meter with a Leica and learn the
characteristics of Tri-X, Most of my shooting with the Spotmatic II
and Tri-X was well beyond the metering capability of the camera. In
fact the first time I had a camera who's meter was even close to as
good as a trained eye wa
I bought both of my thread-mount Leicas on ebay. No problem if you only deal
with people who have numerous sales and a 100% rating. If you buy a meterless
Leica, you can get a meter that attaches to the flash shoe or use a handheld
meter. A handheld incident meter is superior to most in-camera
Thank you. I was suspecting such an answer, and I admit I'm very happy
with it :)
Less money, and I'll be forced to train my meter so to say.
May Kodak live long enough for my Tri-X needs.

Thank you all for your thoughts.
Will look at the links provided and certainly use other informations you gave.
Hope I can manage to get this project real.
As for film is dead as Godfrey says, I think not. But darkroom though
might soon be indeed (what a pity).
APX100 @ 2.5€ per film (36 shots) is
