Altho I love the M3, it would not do you as much good if youre getting a tri-elmar. And since its mint, it seems like you use the M4 more. And if you late have regrets, it'll be a lot harder to replace a black M4 than a clean M3. - -B Date: Wed, 04 Dec 2002 13:56:55 +0000 From: "Logan Reinwood" <reinwood007@hotmail.com> Subject: [Leica] Which to keep: M4 Black paint or M3? Message-ID: <F91de4SogQAGnKIQVl600003106@hotmail.com> References: Hi, I am considering selling one of my M body. I own a M7, a M2, a M3 and a black paint M4. I do not feel the need to have 4 M bodies, I never use more than three at the same time. And I would like to raise some money for a Tri-Elmar and/or a changing my 90/2.8 (current version) for a 90 APO Asph + 90/2.8 thin version. I want to keep the M7 (of course :-)) and the M2. I am considering selling either my M3 or my M4 black paint. The M3 is mint and the M4 is one of these black paint bodies that works perfectly but look nicely severly used, like the the one of J. Marshall that was in the Che Guevara booklet(http://members.lycos.co.uk/JemK/Pic-A-Week/marshall.htm) I have the M3 mainly for the high mag of the VF (nice with the Noctilux), but bought recently a 1.25 magnifier that I use either on the M2 or M7. So I do not feel like needing the M3 anymore, but it is a nice piece... I am not either a collector so I do not feel like keeping the M4 Black paint forever, but it is a nice piece... Any advice? beside buying a M5 and M6, so I have the M2-M3-M4-M5-M6-M7 range ;-)?
