Subject: RE: [Leica] M6 0.85 classic question

The only reason that it would be considered a collector item is the quantity
produced... 3130 total production.  That compares to something like 30,000
Canon AE1 that were produced PER MONTH.

You can also compare to 220k M3's produced, 83K M2's, 9.4K M1's, 56K M4's,
35K CL's, etc.

BTW, the rarest was not the M6 0.85 but rather the original MP, which is in
the order of 450 (?).

What makes the .85 M6 such a collector item?
