It is easily repaired, quite accurate, and meshes nicely with the 90mm frameline for close metering. It is highly recommended. However, I would recommend buying a broken one, as these can be had for $50 or so, then sending it off to Quality Light Metric for repair and calibration. That will give you a refurbished and accurate meter designed to Leica specifications to work with your Leica camera. Marc Marc James Small Cha Robh Bas Fir, Gun Ghras Fir! FAX: +540/343-7315
