It's the speed that's the problem. Of course that will give Leica a reason to introduce an M6TTL-II (M6TTL-1/2) model, won't it? It's these changes that help create a lot of interest in Leica and, of course, help Leica with sales of new cameras and it does not hurt the value of non-current Leicas either. I believe that my Leicas will still be working when I am "deep six" and hopefully they will be passed on for future generations to enjoy. I believe an M6, or whatever the number is in the future, should be mechanical, not electronic and the quality should be unquestionable. I don't want to see anymore plastic or cheap parts on Leica products. In closing I would like to ask you if you know of anytime in the past that Leica has ever consulted with Luggers about the design of Leica products?

Not good for mid-day fill flash, but for wink flash in marginal light, it's cool. Not much use to me, since I already have a Metz and R8 to do that work. -- >>
