Subject: [Leica] My one week with the M7

Hello LUG
 
I recently bought and then sold an M7.  I paid $ 2000 ( mint-, used )  and 
sold on ebay for $ 1975, so I guess I paid $ 25 for the week I used  it.
 
Why did I sell it ?  Well, compared to the M6, I just didn't find it  to be 
any great leap forward in a camera...Sure for Leica it may have been a  
leap, 
but for me it wasn't a big enough difference to warrant owning the M7 when  
the 
M6 suits me well.  And one other comment, does it bother anyone else  that 
the sharp edge of the hot shoe is so close to the winder ?  I have  
scratched 
myself on a few occasions grabbing the camera....
 
Anyone else with similar thoughts ?
 
Dan
