Guys
Let me remind you that with black paint Ms costing up
to 5K It is feasable to strip a mint chrome top bare
and have it panted black and baked using industrial
quality paint and processes. The result is a black
paint camera that is indistinguishable from the
originals. Only the serial number can denote a
discrepancy but since some were converted by the
factory it doesn't mean much. I would be very
skeptical about black paint Ms at this point.
Particularly minty ones.
See Ya
Javier
