M2 - minimum focus distance

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Leica Photography : One Thread

I just got a M2. Can anyone let me know the minimum focusing distance ? I put on a 35 cron which focuses well below 0.7m on my M6ttl.

Thanks for your help

If you pull off the lens and move in and out on a subject while looking through the finder you'll be able to see how close YOUR M2 will go. If you're concerned that the new camera can't follow the lens all the way in, put on the lens and notice if the RF image stops moving before the focus ring does, as you focus closer and closer.
