[Leica] M6

[Lluis Ripoll]

I’ve had both, a M6TTL .85x sold logntime ago, a MP 0.85x sold in 2014 and right now another MP 0,72x, I have to say that I prefer the 0,72x because it is better for use with the 28mm too, if you want a bigger focusing path purchase the magnifier 1.25x or 1.40x, however IMHO no one is better than the fantastic old M3 viewfinder for the 50mm.

For me, it worked fine.

I’m told that the body is designed to work best with 50mm and longer, but what kind of results can I expect with my 35 Summilux FLE (about the only lens I use with my M10)?  Any experience with Voigtländer or Zeiss?
