The best companion for your MP will be the guy you sell it to, after you will have tried the M7.

Where is the ONLY real companion for an MP?

The M2 of course...

[Ronald M]

Another MP or M6. Something with different controls will really give you fits when you need to go fast.

best companion for the MP is my black paint E46 lux from the classifieds :-)

jokes aside, I voted for the nikon SP

M5.
First Leica with TTL, 25 years before they managed to do it again. Last of the hand built Leicas. A Lwica masterpiece that was poorly marketed and arrived at a time when pros had migrated to Nikon and CNon SLRs.

While the ignorance about the M5 puzzles me, I'm happy that it keeps prices low. You can pick up a beauty for $1000.

invest the money in loads of film and free-time/travel to put the MP to good use. good pictures are priceless compared to another metal jewel around

I think you forgot the most important companion to any MP: film, a lot of film.

I Can't believe I can vote for an M5 but not an M2

[Stuart John]

My suggestion would be an SLR with a 50mm macro and a 105mm f2.5/2.8. The MP won't do close ups or macro easily and is not great with a telephoto. I would add a plain prism Nikon F.

Totally the M8 - i run an M6 TTL / M8 combo, which in many ways in the same. That, or the M2.
