I am glad that it is almost mint, now you can mount a collapsible lens and take it everywhere in a jacket pocket so we can see more chess pictures. :) I know they are more money, but I would look at an R6 or and R7 instead of the R5. Leica kept refining the model so the later in the R is better. Exactly the opposite of the M where the M3 is arguable the best M. :) :) I've done it now, another religious war coming.
