Both have operated flawlessly thru sometimes incredibly poor daily treatment and over 5,000 rolls between the two. They do not rattle or show any sign of coming apart or breaking. Your statement is surprising to me. Please explain what you mean...."Unlike Leica SLRs Nikons dont break."???? Michael Hintlian >> I wasn't the one who made that statement, but as a long-time user of both Leica (M and LTM) and Nikon, I can say that on occasion *any* camera breaks. All those Nikon repair shops out there aren't lacking for work. In fact, if it weren't for broken Nikons there'd be no way to get parts for the older models. DT
