MP or M7 - Leica M-A / M7 / MP and Film M - Leica Forum
Dec 2, 2024 · The main M6-TTL meter circuit board became unavailable about 15 years after Leica stopped selling the camera, so it wouldn't be a huge surprise if the M7 became unserviceable less than 10 years from now, and of course without the electronics it's …

Mar 30, 2020 · My film usage these days also includes a Leica M7, and 5x4 (Walker Titan XL).

M7 or MP - Leica M-A / M7 / MP and Film M - Leica Forum
Mar 20, 2022 · Some contrasty others grainy and few bold tones.. If and when my meter packs up, will order a new compact meter for accessory shoe. Not Leica. The M7 has no more parts.. The MP may have same meter problems as M6, M6TTL. Find a camera body in good shape, test it and decide if it needs a CLR. Most do not! My M3 is 55 years in use professionally.
Leica M7 with improved viewfinder - Customer Forum - Leica Forum
Dec 30, 2009 · Well that's just it. M7 after the 2885xxx serial # already have both of these ugrades. M7 before that had to be sent in for the FREE DX reader upgrade but you had to pay for the VF upgrade at a cost, these days, of about $325+. As I never really noticed a bad flare in my M7 I didn't opt for the expense for the VF upgrade.

Help choosing Leica M6 or M7 - Leica M-A / M7 / MP and Film M
Sep 15, 2019 · The advantage of AE over the arrow system is marginal if any, and even if the electronics may not be repairable by Leica, they are not essential for use of the camera, like the M7. You make a good point but I have a Canon AE-1 from 1976 which is still working perfectly and the M7 is a much better camera than the M6 in many ways.

Sep 29, 2023 · As a long time Leica customer ( IIIf, M4, M7, M10 and Q2 and quite a few lenses ) I had a quite bad surprise today. A year ago I took my Leica M 7 to the authorized dealer for repair - the camera only worked manually at 1/60 on and 1/125 speed and without light meter. Leica asked 808 euros for th...

Leica MP grip - Leica M-A / M7 / MP and Film M - Leica Forum
Jul 19, 2024 · For the back of the camera the film advance lever is the thumb grip, for fingers use the Leica grip 14405. Generally I'd only use the advance lever to brace the camera while composing a picture or carrying it at the ready, but despite the added bulk I do use the 14405 grip sometimes because it centres the tripod socket on the lens axis.
