Nothing more, nothing less. As such, the important functions are RF accuracy and timing accuracy. In fact, there are no other functions. I would point out that this new analog M film camera is competing with ALL the previous M cameras ever made. M4-2 or M4-p sell for $1,000 or thereabouts. Used. If you must buy new and do not want a meter, there is probably some NOS M4 stock still available, or the simple thing to do is to just take the battery out of a NOS M6, which would cost you $1300 or so. This new camera represents, IMO the using up of a lot of NOS parts, if you will. It will sell to collectors and the rich and famous who may or may not know it uses film...
