Hi all,
I'm a very recent Leica owner (i've been using a Leica III for the last 6
months), and owning an M series Leica was a dream. My M3 finally arrived
today, consequently, i'm very happy.However it seems i'm now the owner of a
special M3! It has no self-timer and according to the Leica representatives
here is rare, and is a part of the 'modified for professionals' set of M3's
Leica produced. I'm going to write to Leica and see if i can elicit a
little more information, but does anyone on the list here have any
information about these?
I'm trying to track down a lens cap for my DR Summicron as well. If anyone
has one for sale, or one spare I could purchase, i would be most grateful.
Preferably less than $20 U.S. would be nice (have you seen the N.Z.
exchange rate :). It doesn't have to be a Leica cap, but I don't seem to be
having much luck here finding a generic one.
Take care,
Gary
