On the first, the lens is fully described in Dechert's book on Canon RF
cameras.  It's a nice, solid lens which is capable of good work.  On the
second, there are several places repairing Leicameter MR's, but that
doesn't necessarily mean that this one is repairable.  Quality Light-Metric
in Hollywood and Essex in New York both repair these meters.
