Wrong!  A Solms M6, one of those late and junky ones, will not, it is true,
but why would someone settle for second best?  The impeccably built and
superbly designed Wetzlar ones WILL take the cassettes, as they have the M3
locking lugs on their baseplate.

I know:  I have one!

And Leica will cheerfully sell any of us an M4-2 baseplate which has the
lugs, and which will fit the M6.
