Butt of course!
The M5 is the best film camera Leica ever made.

Did you make a typo there or forget a smiley face? I think you really meant to say that the M4 is the best. Very curious what you like about the M5 compared to the other film M's? I'd love to try one for a day or two...

Weeeelll for full disclosure I use M3s, M4-2, M5, M-A, M7, Md-A, 1F and a couple of CLEs for my film Leica mount cameras. The M5 brings several things to the table that none of the others do. The size - many say the bigger size is a negative (geddit?!) but actually it's a positive. It works and balances perfectly with the larger lenses such as Nokton 50 1.1, 35 1.2, ZM 35 1.4, Noctiluxes etc. These lenses feel too big on the traditional M bodies unless you add a grip or motor drive. But the M5 still works great with regular small lenses. I've never felt that the body was too big for a lens, but I have the other way round for the regular Ms.
Then we have the VF. The M5 shows more exposure information in the VF than any other M Leica - film or digital. It shows the shutter speed and how many stops you are away from correct exposure. With an M7 or digital M, it just shows shutter speed OR it shows + - . In manual mode they are not able to show as many stops away from correct exposure as the M5, I think only 1 stop?
Then we have the spot metering on the M5.
Then we have the oversized shutter speed dial that overhangs the front so you can easily turn it with one finger, while the camera is at your eye, AND you can see what the shutter speed is in the VF.
Then we have the rewind knob which is much stronger and quicker than any of the other Ms because it is i/ not angled (stronger), ii/ has a regular crank on it (quicker).
But apart from that, the other Ms are just as good.



All kidding aside I love using any of the Ms, they all are special, the M5 is just a bit more special.

While I generally don't post pictures of people in embarrassing situations public nose-picking is where I draw the line; nor does using the pinky make it more elegant. It's simply all over the place in Thailand, where it doesn't seem to trigger self-awareness, seriously,

Thanks Huss! I can better understand now. Personally, I don't like the look and size of the M5. If I was to ever buy a metered film M it would be the M7. BUT - I do want to try out an M5 one day if I can borrow one from someone. PS - nice collection of M's you have!

Seems like you are really getting along well with the M10 Mitch! From what I have seen, this M has the best color output of any digital M's.

Definitely! I had an M5 a year or so ago and I completely regret selling it. I would rebuy one in a heartbeat.

I found this photo from 2015 when I was actually looking fo something else. It's nothing special about it but I like it because it's a kind of time document, not often I shoot these kind of photos. The crossing of two of the major streets in Stockholm if anyone's curious.
