For now, I must admire the body and envy the lenses. I am figuring about $650 in cash or trade value for the Nikkor. Subsequently I am looking at the Summilux F1.4 M mount lens. Do you feel this lens would be the best value for general shooting, starter lens or do you have other thoughts? Also, I bought a black M6. I like the look. A dealer told me to get chrome as he thought it wouldn't show wear as much. I threw the advice to the wind in favor of the black look. My question is there tape, e.g. electrical that could be put in critical wear areas to preserve the body or just throw caution to the wind and use the heck out of it?
