Sorry I didn't get to respond to each post individually, but I'm on the digest, and to conserve bandwidth thought it best just to send one message out to everyone. I have 2 additional questions about the M5, what kind of batteries does it use and are they readily available? Does anyone have a M5 for sale at a reasonable price? (ie, non-collector). I haven't made a decision yet, but I'd like to see what's available, especially when it comes to the M5. Thanks again for all your help, advice, and replies. Bill - Annapolis PS OT The car thread was interesting as years ago I drove a 67 jag xke, always having electrical problems, for a couple of months I had to park on hills so I could get a rolling start to jumpstart the jag. Looking back on it, those were actually kinda *fun* times <g> Bill Campbell wrote: > Hello Fellow Luggers, > > I'd like to purchase a Leica with built in metering, or even aperture > priority, but I'm on a budget and really need to make a decision based on > the best value I can get based on the fact I'll be purchasing a used Leica. > > I'm currently looking at the M5 (used $900 - $1200), M6 .72 TTL (used $1000 > to $1600), or an M7 .72 (around $2000).
