Your M2 is going to be a few decades old and the lubricants will have dried up, therefore your shutter times etc will be off. Shooting the camera without proper lubrication is like driving a car with no oil in the engine. Don't expect it to last without the proper maintenance. www.ritzcam.com sells M cameras that have had a CLA by DAG. It's a good deal. feli On Sunday, Sep 7, 2003, at 07:49 US/Pacific, Justin Low wrote: > Hello all, > > If I am able to handle a M2 before deciding to buy it, what should I > look out for? > > I mean, like beyond the obvious no bullet holes or huge dents or > cracked > glass, or more likely the smoothness of all the levers and buttons, > what > else should one pay attention to?
