Since I've never had a M6 before, I have a question. The brightlines are not nearly as bright as those in my M3, and tend to wash out on the right side. Is this normal? Is there an easy fix for it? Otherwise, the camera is in great shape -- even to the original plastic protector on the baseplate. Can't wait to put my first roll of film through it. My other question involves that first roll of film. The only Leica that I consistently misloaded was an M4 that I owned many years ago. Since then, I've only shot with screwthread and M3 Leicas. Does anyone have any tips on loading the M6 so that I can be sure the film will stay in the prongs of the takeup thingy?
