I'm a big fan of the early screwmounts. I've got 2 IIIcs, 1 IIIf, a couple of Nicca Leica look-alikes (wonderful cameras with all the virtues of the screwmounts, plus M Leica type loading and an advance lever), and a Leotax F which I basically acquired because of the lenses it came with, but liked so much that I kept. As for the M mount cameras, I have a Leica M6 Panda and a Minolta CLE. I have to say that the CLE is getting the most use now, and I haven't figured out whether that is because of its feature set, or simply because it was the most recent acquisition. Devoted as I am to Leicas, a number of these Leica-compatible cameras make wonderful additions to the arsenal. Mark Jeffery Smith wrote: > I just bought three of them (M4 and 2 M6's).
