M4 + CL

--with IIIc + Canon P contributing backup/screw lenses & adapters.

Then there's the M mount permanently attached to my GXR (sporting the Canon 50 1.4 today), and M/ltm adapters always packed with my m43 body when I'm not shooting the Panasonic 20 1.7....

I added a CL to my M9 and M4-2 kit, and I also use a Ricoh GXR-M with the same lenses.

I'm up to 4 right now. Had three for quite a while, an M8.2, M6TTL and M2-S. Sent my prized possession M2-S in for service and the shipping company lost it. Was crushed.

After nearly a month of them telling me they had no idea where it was and the chances were pretty much nil that I'd ever see it again, I reluctantly bought an M3 DS to replace it. But I still kept hounding the shipping company about my M2-S. And low and behold, they finally found it, and I got it back today.

So now I got 4.

Best,
-Tim

One Leica M is all I need: an M2. I also have a Bessa R2 as a backup body, but only really use it when really accurate metering will be advantageous - with 25iso films and the like.

You should have called this thread: How many Leica M's do you have, and are you still married?
