That would be one hell of a rare and valuable camera. You could sell it and get a bunch of M6s. Perhaps you have a M4-P? Instead of getting an 0.85x why not get the 0.72x and a 1.25x magnifier. That way you have the best of both worlds. A 28 frame and, with the magnifier mounted, an even higher magnification than the 0.85x when you use long lenses.
