The M6 is fully capable of taking beautifull photographs as it currently
stands, for this reasen I don't really believe it is obsolete (I'm
expecting delivery of a new M6HM as I type this).  But when its features
are compared in a checklist with other cameras, it LOOKS obsolete.  If it
never existed, no designer in his/her right mind would propose such a
camera.  Its success depends much on its history.
