Bill,
It's the crumby pictures I posted.
Both cams are symmetrical and have nothing other than the normal surface "polishing" type wear.
The coarseness of the cam gear surfaces was exaggerated as well.
The M3 was one of my Dad's pride and joys.
He bought it in Germany in 1963.
Has the 35mm, 55mm and 125mm lenses as well.
I use only rarely.
Who know what's on the roll of film in it now!
I had a Pentax that I was always bragging about.
One Spring day when the azaleas were blooming in Texas he said "OK, get your camera and take the best picture you can and I'll do the same. We'll compare when they are developed."
Side by side there was no comparison. The lenses on that camera a really something!
