I don't think 3,000$ is expensive for a 'brand new factory made Black paint M6TTL'. Specially in such a small quantity. I was expecting a higher price. Not hoping! (And I know that 3,000$ is a lot of money, but not a lot of money for 'that', IMHO) Well done, Bill! I'm sure it will be a great success. And I bet that the kind souls who will not buy it at that price, will be really sorry later... And by the way, I intend to use it. For me it will not be a collector piece, but a successful attempt to bring back the delicious feeling of the 'good old black and brassy M4', and that with a meter cell. Like the M6J brought back the M3 feeling. To bad it was not commissioned by the LHSA, at a much lower price. ;-) I believe the Black paint LHSA will be the nicest camera made by Leica since a long time. And I'm not the only one. Bravo again, Bill. Lucien 'I really hate the red dot'
