Analog film photography and cameras

Get an M6 if you need the LED meter, could save some money and get an M2/M4/M5. Arguably they’ll all keep their value.

As for the lens, depending on what you plan on using the camera for or just to see if you’ll like it - I’d say the voigtlander 35s are great. Can only be beat by Zeiss or Leica but for a considerable premium. I have the nokton 35, and it’s a great all rounder - small and great for taking on holiday ツ

So Leica lust has really bitten me. I'm considering an M6.

Where's the best place to start looking and I'm considering matching with a voightlander 35 is this a good starter or should I just opt for the more expensive Leica equivalent?

If budget is an issue I wouldn't bother with a more expensive Leica equivalent lens. I bought a M5 and Zeiss 35 2.8 earlier this year and love them. The Zeiss is plenty sharp and contrasty.

Cosina make both Zeiss and Voigtlander M mount lenses, they know what they're doing. Probably one of the biggest factors is getting a new lens for a film camera instead of using 40+ year old lenses that are full of crap and the coating is starting to wear off.

Ive got an M6 and the 35 F2.5 Voightlander, Its nice but I really wanna get the leica 35 F2 at some point just to be a snob.

The setup i have is fine for most stuff although I shoot more with my T2 than my leica which has probs not shot a picture in at least a year but i cant bare to sell it either.
