Subject: Re: [Leica] MP and rewind crank.

As long as there is a rewind crank option, it does not matter that the 
camera comes with a knob rewind. The only thing I wish they had kept is 
the TTL flash metering. I could live without the large shutter dial 
but, the few times I use it, I like using TTL flash. If Rich is right 
and it is just another special ed, then it does not really matter 
anyway.

PS: I am going to order a rewind crank for my M2 as soon as I can dig 
up a part number. I have the Wasserman one but I do not care for it 
much.
