Mark and Bill,

I have ser# 1469877 did not realize it was that early in the production 
run.....Bill Barton

I have No 1468033 I believe the first 100 had a red spot on the body, about
where the self timer would have been, mine has. Depending on which source
you look up 1468000 to 1468100 is either M4-2 (true) or R3 false! one
reference even notes it to have been made by Leitz Portugal. I do not know
if this is true.
Cheers Frank
