It would be similar to comparing a Leica M2/M3 to the new MP. - no meter - double stroke advance - externally reset frame counter (my M6 had problems with "return to -2", as does my M5 now) - no self timer (the new M6/MP look naked in that regard) - M3 viewfinder - 0.9x mag, and no 35mm frames - no depth of field notches - fitted for Leicavit winder - spool film takeup regards, Vick -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+vick.ko=sympatico.ca@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+vick.ko=sympatico.ca@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Alexander Glissan Sent: Monday, November 15, 2004 5:59 AM To: lug@leica-users.org Subject: [Leica] Original Leica MP Does anyone, know anyone, who owns an original Leica MP and if so how does it compare to the new one? I am not in the market (or even in the ballpark, heck even the game) for owning one, merely curious.
