Comfortable strap
Bought for my Nikon F2, The strap is easy to put on, material is soft on the skin as a neck strap. Easily adjusted and long enough for tall people. Includes enforced string type attachments or standard strap attachments.

Leica M5: A major break from the "M" culture in 1971
8 of 8 found this helpful The Leica M5 was a major break from the all the past Leica "M"s up to now. It had many "NEW" innovations that Leica was hoping would perk up their sales and clients. It was the 1st "M" with TTL metering,(The Leica CL was the 2nd and Smallest M also, to this day 2010). The list of "new" stuff were: A TTL meter, a squared off body, a rewind crank in the base plate, A shutter speed dial that had a slight over hang over the front of the body, Shutter Speed and meter read out "in the View Finder", The shutter that can be set between marked speeds - except 1/30 and 1/60 -. The shutter dial had markings to 30 seconds-the meter could read to 30s, but,you had use the "bulb" setting and count it off. The CDS cell was and still is one of most sensitive CDS cells around. It was the last "M" that was made in Waltzer, Germany..That Is: Put together by hand. It had a hot shoe. The black version camera was made with a black chromium finish (Black Paint was the other way.
The Camera is as smooth as any Leica M, and handles quite fast. The Shutter is quite and the winding is silky smooth. It is now a "Cult Classic" and the value is going up. The VF can be upgraded to have 28/90, 35/135, 50/75 frame lines. The Original has 35/135, 50/90. And with a MR-9 battery adapter, you can use 1.35v Silver386 batteries.
I own an M5 with an updated VF frame lines and the MR-9 adapter... Perfect!@!!!
Serial numbers above 135xxxx have a internal upgrade to the shutter mechanics. but, if get an earlier number, a Cleaning, Lubrication and Adjustment will a part of the service in most cases. Cost between $250.00 and $350.00, so buy with this cost in mind... a 34-37 year old Leica M5 will need a service, If it hasn't one in the last 10 years or so. Even though it may work just fine.
My Rating: 5/Star all the way.

Simple, works
holds tightly in place, does not shake while driving.
