The reason: (1) There are only two kinds of cameras--Leica and the others. There are only two kinds of Leicas--M3 and the others. (2) M3 is better than other M's for 50mm to 135mm lenses, because of M3's larger viewing frame. Don't take reason (1) too serious --I saw it on some book. Actually, I couldn't decide between M2 and M3. I chose M3 mostly because the store I ordered didn't have a good-looking M2 that was made in the year I was born :-) /Leslie
