I have enjoyed reading this list for some time now and have learned
a lot from these readings. Thanks in advance for help with the answer to
this question.
I understand from various ads in magazines, and from Lager's early
books, that there exists a list of serial numbers for M camera that
indicate whether they are M2's, M4's, etc. However, there also apparently
exists a list of serial numbers versus the factory finish that was applied
to the camera. In particular, I am wanting to know what the factory finish
was on M4 #1225531 made in 1969. My concern is how to tell the difference
between black paint(enamel?) and black chrome.
I would strongly recommend joining LHSA to anyone on this list that
is not already a member.
