You can probably reverse, to some extent, what you said below. I own both an M6 and M4 and LOVE both, but the M4 IS a better built camera. The super accurate meter makes the M6 more convenient, but in most situations I can come close enough without the meter or using an incident reading, and that makes shooting much faster for me. Greg >> It is good to know what those who must work on the M's have to say about the old versus the new and it confirms the fact that "bean couunters" just do not know quality nor how to produce it as reasonable costs.
