[Leica] M7, Rapidwinder, Motor M and Winder M

[Lucien <director@ubi.edu>]

I have just tested the M7 with Tom's Rapidwinder, the Leica Motor M
(14408) and Winder M (14402)

The Rapidwinder is fully compatible with the M7. It work like a charm.

Of course, the Motor M is also fully compatible, but the metering
memory-lock is valid only for one picture, not for a series. (same with
the Rapidwinder)

The Winder M (and Winder M4-2) is not compatible with the M7 (and the
last series of M6TTL using the same chassis) because of the locking
system which is interfering with the DX contacts housing.
The little fixed metal part ,there to stop the moving part of the lock ,
is in the way.

The same with the old baseplate (M4 to first M6). No Leica cassette with
the M7.
