Gary, I noticed you didn't receive any response for the above?? How
much did you manage to pay for the M-1?? I was quite close to buying
the M-1 over a week ago. But the viewfinder condition was pretty
dismal. Also there was a very small ding on the baseplate. Otherwise it
was AUD$1200 (US$792) incl. M-1 50mm F1.8 lens.

I too will be keen on any info on the M-1...e.g. how many were on the
market, how long were they sold b4 pulled out, etc.
