While I cannot comment on the hifi, a similarly magic SLR is the Leicaflex SL2. Extremely rugged, excellent metering, simple like an M. In medium format, I have recently bought a Rolleiflex TLR (vintage 1956), and so far it seems to fulfill that brief as well. I paid $405 for the Rolleiflex. SL2's are a bit pricier than that, but I also have an SL (similarly rugged but with a less sensitive light meter), and I paid $400 for that, including a 50mm Summicron.
