Once in a while, I use a borrowed M6 TTL along with my own M6 Classic, and more than 95% of the time, there's no problem. But once in a great while, I bring the camera to my eye, quickly turn the dial, and it's in the WRONG direction. It happens only once in a great while, but it happens. Same with the confusion over the 50/75 frameline. I use both of them, but avoid using both of them in the same shoot. BTW, I happen to prefer the shutter speed dial on the M6 TTL. - Phong
