Are they still cheap in Japan? Looks like they are all 750+ on eBay now, even the ones from Japan.
All these cameras are prone to fail, such a shame as the quality of their photos is amazing. I actually have contacts for a couple of people who do the impossible repairs, already sent my hexar off once for a shutter release replace.

No one seems to be doing the repairs now although apparently they still repair them in Japan as they have parts but seems like on one here or the US is doing anything now with them when they bricks.
The word cheap I think is a loose word, Id say £5/6 is cheap but with the ones from japan you'll get fuckin humped on import duty and stuff. When I visit japan im gonna buy a few next!

aye they are a shambles, I bought my first one for £150 then everyone since then has been more and more.
My issue is that they are a timebomb as much as I love them, if I ever go to Tokyo I’m loading up.
The T2 is just as good as my M6 and it’s just so easy to use but I can’t let go of the Leica either
