That’s a good plan, sell the equipment you won’t use for the new body you’ll be using instead. No need to hoard. If you’re looking for M mount lenses, Voigtlander beats out all the classic Leica glass in performance for a fraction of the price. It’s only the newer Leica lenses that sometimes edge out, ever so slightly, in performance.

I wouldn’t go with an M7, I have a few friends that aren’t afraid of the circuitry potentially dying but they can easily afford another body if it dies. I’m not as cool as them so I have an M4, I usually meter on my phone every few shots because my phone camera sensor is more accurate than anything inside a film Leica. I haven’t metered wrong since, sometimes I only meter once a roll— sometimes I meter every shot. It mainly depends on if the light changes.

Amsterdam Camera Repair recently came out with new circuit boards for the original generation of M6 but I don’t think they have a replacement for the TTL circuitry yet and certainly not for the M7.
