Check out photo.net. Last time I looked, there were several M3's for sale
that would probably work for you. If not there, check out Shutterbug
magazine. Don't know about the 90/2. I use the Elmarit-M 90/2.8. It's great.

Hello,

First thing you should check is whether the video card on the machine
has gamma control capability.  Some video cards can modify gamma in
hardware, some can't.

Otherwise, my guess would be to check that you have the latest video
card drivers installed.

ObLeica:

Where is the best place to find a "user" M3 - I have looked through all
the M series and the M3 really gives me the view I want.  Does it
balance well with one of those big 90F2's on it?

Cordially
