Or >are all the leica vf cameras completely non electronic? Don't feel bad, in an SLR world, rangefinder savvy is hard to come by. The M6 has electronics for one thing. Measure light and tell you how to adjust aperture and shutter speed. You do the manual labor. They are stop-down metered because you aren't looking through the lenses. They don't need the mechanism to hold the aperture open. That is one reason they are so small. Fewer parts. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Hard work has a future payoff. Laziness pays off now
