RE: [Leica] Leica M2 and meters

["Bergman, Mark A." <mabergm@nppd.com>]

I've used the MR meters just about since they came out.  They are very
accurate and I think I like them better than the meter in the M6.  I don't
know your source for saying they get out of adjustment easily but I would
say they are full of crap.  They either work or they don't.

A trusted source has told me that the MR meters get out of adjustment easily
causing them to give bad readings.  Anyone have any experience with that?
If so, are they easily adjustable?
