Subject: [Leica] M4-2 wisdom....

Looking at an M4-2 body and remembered unfavorable feedback in here...I
think.

What changed in the camera besides the geography of the assembly point? 
Did Leica "cheapen" the camera or is it an M4 in a different wrapper.  Is
this camera a total bow-wow or is it a sleeper?  Seem to remember that
there were issues around the shutter???

Is the M4-2 viewfinder .72X like the M6 classic? (or whatever the M6
magnification is) 

Should it be avoided?  Rants, raves?

Looking for the usual informed feedback.  Thanks.

Michael
