[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have a few questions reguarding Leicas and thought that you guys would be the best place to start. Pleae feel free to correct me in any area where I may have wrong information. I am interested in getting my first Leica and am leaning toward an M3 with a 50 Summicron, possibly an Sumilux. Particularly the M3 since the finder is full frame 50. Is there anything that I should know before purchasing one? Is there a better body that I should consider? Also, what is the difference between the collapsible 50s and the stiff ones? Is any 50 better than another? Althought I have been a professional photographer for nearly 9 years, I have never delved into the world of Leica. So, as you can see, I have a lot of questions and the variables with Leicas seems daunting. Thanks in advance for you help PK - -- Peter A.
