I am a user of R3 system and > Contax T2, and now considering a rangefinder camera system for 35 and 50 mm > M lenses. > > I am currently interested in Leica CL body, Greetings, I've never used a CL but I understand it doesn't have viewfinder frames for the 50mm or 35mm lenses. A 40mm lens was made for the camera and there is a 40mm frame in the viewfinder. An M2 or an M4-P would be the least expensive body giving you frames for 50 and 35 mm lenses. M4, M4-2 and M6 also would give you those frames but they tend to be more expensive. Any M series body can be repaired by either Leica of numerous shops all over the world. That may not be the case with the CL. Peter Jon White
