Hi Group -
I asked about exactly this item about 8 months ago and
got no response. I used to use the Nikon casettes and
still have 15 of them. But alas, while the idea is
exactly the same, they do not work in the Leica M6
because the tab/button that is pushed when the cover
is closed is in the improper position. Too bad.
Where can I get Leica casettes? Hopefully they don't
cost $100/each!
Thanks.
