I just got back from two weeks in Cuba. Did not take the 'Tom A. softie', in fear of losing that special LUG softie you know about. The M6, with 50/2 and 24/2.8, performed really well. A high percentage of slides were well exposed, also on Agfa Scala, pushed tot 1600 for the shots in the Casas de la Trova. That is where they play Son and other Cuban music. My friends told me that they found the M6 to be really inobtrusive and less threatening than SLR cameras, especially with flash. Poeple also react well this camera, I found out. Cuba is a marvel for photographers with photogenic landscapes and colonial cities and really friendly people. Very wellcoming and inviting you into their homes all the time. We rented a car and drove 2000 km! Will put some pics on the net when they are dry!
