Why would they??? I cannot fathom having a problem loading an M6. I
reloaded my M6, at the Tower of London, in the nearly totally dark "Crown
Jewels Room" with not a problem. And the photographs (35/1.4 ASPH, 1/15 @
f/1.4 on MS 100/1000 at 200) look great. I've loaded it on crowded subways
where folks are all jambed together. Anyway, that week long thread on
loading an M6 perplexes me. It takes me 10 seconds, at my workshops, to
teach a newbie how to load an M6. And it's over. End of subject.
