This is what I use on my M6 at home (I take it off when I'm going out with the camera so that the camera and lens goes into a jacket pocket). When I bought it I was told they had an earlier one there as well, but I wouldn't like it as it didn't dampen the noise or the shock at all, and I would really hear and feel it. I got the later one, and it's been fine; not as quiet as manual winding obviously, but not like SLR winders at all- a much softer, nicer noise. It makes the M6 a very zippy and fast-responding camera indeed. I like it a lot. Mine is Canadian, no 14227. -- joe b.
