[Leica] M6 TTL / SCA Confusions

[Bill Pearce]

I have a Metz SCA 3002 with a 3202 foot. It works perfect on my M9, my 
Pansonic GX7 and my OMD-EM5II.

But then when I first got it, I used it on the M9 with the standard foot and 
the internal auto  and no difference was discernable.

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:

Hope that helps.
