The MP-2 was the first experimental M cameras with electric motor drive built in the late 1950's, Only 21 chrome cameras were produced, less than 10 are known to exist with the original electric motor. It comes from the second batch of 15 cameras (nos.952001-952015). This offered camera is in almost new and fully original condition, with matching black Wetzlar electric motor drive and power source handle - for sure one of the most important M camera ever offered in auction !
