It's nice to see young people with classic cameras -- or simply with _film_
cameras. I spotted easily the M2, I can see the manual-resetting frame
counter dial around the shutter release... like mine ;-)

As usual, I'm late replying to posts, so I think this was already said, but
there's no need for the film trimming ritual on Leica-M bodies --it's just
for the older LTM models.

It's the VC2, the front window is placed at the very centre of the meter's
body, with non-overlapping dials and the LEDs to the left (as seen from the
top by the photographer). But who needs a light meter, anyway? :-) :-)

As long as you put a screw mount adapter, yes :-) Seriously, all M Leicas
are bayonet mount.
