Does anyone know a source for Leica R4 parts other than Leica? Or is Leica even an opion?
New Leica owner here.

I need a Depth of field lever (and instructions how to replace it)
Thanks

The Minolta XD series (XD-11 in particular) is nearly identical mechanically except for the lens mount.

The depth of field mechanism is one area where the two cameras are entirely different. I have used Leica USA in the past for parts and they have been very helpful and prompt.
