Halo, saya mau berbagi sedikit soal range finder warisan dari mendiang Opa saya. Opa membeli kamera ini untuk hadiah ulang tahun Om saya, lalu si Om memberikan ke saya karena sudah nggak pernah motret lagi.
menurut serial numbernya, kamera saya dibuat antara tahun 1948-1957, diproduksi sebanyak 82000 unit, dan kamera saya produksi ke-6763. Lensa untuk Leica M series hanya ada 3 macam. 35mm, 50mm, dan 85mm.

The Leica M2 is a 35 mm rangefinder camera by Ernst Leitz GmbH of Wetzlar, Germany, introduced in 1957. Leica is a portmanteau formed from the words Leitz and camera. The M2 has a rangefinder with a 0.72 magnification and frames for 35, 50 and 90mm lenses (instead of the 0.91 magnification and 50, 90 and 135mm frames of the M3). This made it better suited for photojournalists who favour shorter lenses. Unlike the M3, the widest framelines were not always visible so only one set of framelines were ever displayed at one time. All M2s are single stroke advance. Around 82,000 M2s were produced between 1957 and 1968. Around 1500 M2s were produced by Ernst Leitz Canada, but most of these are not marked as such on the top plate.
The M2 was considered to be a simplification of the Leica M3 of 1954 which made it more affordable than the M3 — thus the name "M2." Notably, the frame counter of the M2 was composed of a disk plate beneath the film advance lever that had to be manually reset to zero after reloading. This system was close to that of the Leica III series, and unlike that of the M3, which is an independent frame counter, visible through a window in the top plate, that automatically resets to zero. The rangefinder system was also simplified from that of the M3 and this made it potentially more prone to rangefinder flare. Finally, the ornate beveling around the various windows on the front of the M3 were flattened on the body of the M2.
The M2 was followed by the still simpler Leica M1 and then the Leica M4, which used a similar rangefinder design but re-introduced the M3 style frame counter and added a faster loading system and a canted rewind lever.
The Leica M2 is the camera that was used by Alberto Korda to take his famous photo of Che Guevara.
