Subject: [Leica] M4-P prices?

Why is it not a M4?  Don't understand.  Maybe because it was made in Canada? 
 Also a Nikon F1?  Was not this F1 moniker a Canon body?  After the F came 
the F2...

The problem with the M4-P is that it is not an M4.  It is a nice looking
camera, and takes pictures just like an M4, but, just like the M4-2, it is
not an M4, so it is pretty much worth what someone will pay for it.

I don't think there were too many M4-P cameras out there, but while not
rare, they weren't popular among news photographers, because they came after
the Nikon F1.

Best bet is to run a check on sold items on the 'bay and see what they are
actually selling for.  Another way to get the value is to offer it to KEH.
They will offer 60% of what you might expect.
