Subject: [Leica] I think I miss my IIIF
From: Gabe Sachs <egabe@ix.netcom.com>

Hello all.  I have an M6 and an R4s that I shoot with non-stop, but for
some reason, I always felt more comfortable with the IIIF and I think
that's because of how it fit in my hand.  It just felt right.  I wasn't
crazy about the loading situation on it but boy it was sooo compact.  I
also feel like it was a tank and that I have to be really careful with my
M6.  That's probably my problem.  I'm too worried about dropping the damn
thing.  Anyway,  thank you for letting me vent for a moment....now fo the
question.  As far as weight goes,  can you tell me if the M3 or M4P is
heavier or lighter than the M6.   Also, what M had a meter built into
besides the M6 and was it or is it as reliable?

Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks
Gabe
