I've got 3 M6 bodies (2 TTL), its my basic opinion that Leica photography
should be done with available light (which is why they make the 75 1.4, 35
1.4 and 50 1.0) I also own a flash (SF20), Sometimes its necessary to use a
flash, even with leica :)

So someone should call the cops, cause occasionally I rape people. ;) *joke*

Me too.
Never quite understood why Leica did the M6 TTL. I surely didn't buy a
Leica to use it with flash.

I agree. I bought mine to take pictures. But that quite often requires
flash.

If you're interested in getting pictures rather than the "Leica philosophy"
then you may find flash useful.

BTW, I don't have the TTL.
