[Leica] M6 TTL / SCA Confusions

[Gerry Walden]

Craig

you don’t say which flash unit you have but the Metz site says the correct fitting for the M6TTL is the 3502 (not the 3501). I have a 3402 shoe which is clearly marked M6 on a sticker, and it appears to work on the M9, but again the correct one according to Metz is the 3502. here is a link to the complete compatibility chart at Metz:

Oops, it is a bit long so make sure you copy it all into your browser.

Hope that helps.

The M6 manual lists the SCA 3501 as the correct module.  I have a number of SCA 300 flash units and am accustomed to swapping modules for different systems.  The 3501 module looks smaller in photos and seemingly doesn't stretch across the entire SCA 300 piece but looks to have the same shaped slot, etc.  I live in a rural area, far from metro/store resources and need to lean on the net and user groups for guidance.  Can anyone steer me correct a bit on this?
