The coolest feature is the double shoes - one hot, one not.
It's so simple, and brilliant.

I wish my M6's had that feature. I've taken a few flash pics
with my CV 21/4 (external VF more-or-less required), so
I used a Vivitar 285 and the little cord that fits into the sync
socket.  I also like using a CV 28mm metal finder when I
shoot with the 28/2.

I'd much rather have used my more convenient SF24, but
the M6TTL had a "shoe deficit."

If Zeiss put this feature onto their regular RF body, I'd be
tempted to trade in one of my M6's.
