Question: My M3 has the "old speeds". My only real complaint is
that the black on chrome shutter speed dial is quite difficult to
read in low light. would it be possible to convert it to "new
speeds" and then use a shutter speed dial from an black M4 or
M4-2?
For Sale: Visoflex II w/4x 90 degree finder. Rear cap but no
front cap for mirror box. Clean, but has some dust, etc. on
either the viewing screen or in the finder (I can't remember). I
just don't use it and the wife (see above) says that I've got to
clean out stuff since I got the Canon. I've used this with my M3
and my 90mm Elmarit for macro pictures (the Visoflex acts like an
extension tube), but it looks like the Canon will take over that
task. $60, including UPS ground shipping in continental U.S.
