I know that the metering mechanism of the M5 is more fragile than that of the M6. But the M5 is a Leica and it is built like a Tiger tank. However, I like your point of view. I wish there were more people like you. Then the M5s would not appreciate as quickly. I don't know first hand about the CL, but have heard that it, too, is a fine camera. So, let us know where you heard this rumor about the M5 being fragile?
