Subject: [Leica] M6 Rangefinder Flare

Has anyone have a good "field fix" for rangefinder flare on
the M6 (HM)?  This topic was briefly discussed in December
1996 under the topic "M6 finder problem."  At that time, it
appears that Leica acknowledged there was a problem that
they were working to resolve.  The suggestions for fixes
were to move the camera position or place translucent tape
over the frame illumination window.

What do the habitual low light users do to resolve this
problem???

Santa was very good to me this year, delivering a 1.4/75 on
Christmas Eve.  As with all good things, there appear to be
unintended consequences.

Congratulations to Ted and may all Luggers have an extremely
good New Year.
