But, the Leica MP "classic" appearing on ebay, at $6500. It has the classical Leica top-deck engraving, no meter, the classic 50f2 styled lens in black paint with new optics (like the 50-year Summicron) but most unusual (and absurd?), the Leica M4-2/M4-P back plate, with the "write-on" ASA/DIN button. For $6500, I would think they could have found or re-made the classical ASA dial of M3 to M4 era. In my wildest fantasies, I see myself having one. Hmmm. Maybe not. regards Vick
