I've had no problems with it. I shoot only occasionally with the SF20 flash TTL and have had gorgeous results. TTL is like a fire hydrant. It's there when you need it, but otherwise doesn't interfere. Since you 'like the idea of being able to shoot "no-brainer" flash', then in my humble amateur opinion, the choice is a no-brainer. - -David Binder > Date: Sat, 21 Oct 2000 17:46:23 -0700 > From: Bob Croslin <rwcroslin@yahoo.com> > Subject: [Leica] Classic M6 or M6 TTL - which do you prefer > Message-ID: <B61786EE.364%rwcroslin@yahoo.com> > References: > > I've been lurking on the list for a while picking up tid bits of info and I > now have a question as I'm about to buy my first M6 after shooting with an > M3 for a year or so.
