I am not attempting to determine which would be better for me to acquire, since I am a regular CL user. These cameras are not in the Leica mainstream (so to speak), and with production having been limited to some 27,000 M5s and I don't know how many Leica CL (as opposed to Minolta CL and CLE production), I am curious to see how much interest there is in these cameras with their unique challenges such as lens compatability, visoflex use, etc. Brian Levy, J.D.
