Dear Lug,

I have the following for sale:

Leica M6 HM (0.85 Non-TTL) Black Chrome Rare only 3130 made.
(http://www.cameraquest.com/m685.htm).
Boxed. GMP Handgrip (black). Instructions/original documents/Strap.
S/N 242xxxx. Mint/Mint -
(Lens release red dot removed. Light occasional use. Recently CLA'd
about 5 months ago. Unfortunately passport out of date now ended
08/03/00).
£1050 + shipping/post and packaging

With 50mm/f2 Summicron lens (black). 5th edition. Built in focus lever.
50 on barrel.
Detachable Hood. UV Filter. Lens cap. S/N 330xxxx. Mint. £350 +
shipping/post and packaging
Here's what Stephen Gandy has to say about it:
"Fifth version 1980-95  Black lens with "50" on barrel, reintroduced
focusing lever, without built in hood. In my opinion the best choice of
all 50 Summicrons.  I am a fan of both the focusing lever and the larger
attachable hood.  Nice lightweight lens at only 195 grams  6 elements,
recomputed." http://www.cameraquest.com/mlenses.htm

Will split if I really need to.
Please e-mail me privately at byronw77@hotmail.com if interested or
require further information. JPEG images available.
Sale regrettably due to other financial commitments, and one to many
cameras that never get used much.

Regards,

Byron.
