Also, I enjoy the fact that everyone seems to share their travel experiences here. Which lenses, in your opinion, make more sense to purchase used, and save a bit of money? My dream set (one at a time) would be a 24mm, 35mm F2 asph, , 90mm 2.8, and 135mm. An article, I think from the LHSA was saying some wonderful things about the 135 Hectar Do you recommend using the 135 brightline finder for any/all of the 135 lenses? They appear to be fairly easy to find, and would seem to be easier than just relying on the small framelines.. And, with that in mind, is using the longer lenses with the M just a matter of getting used to the small framelines? Do you find the framelines to be pretty accurate? And last, the question of using flash with the M6. I know it was not designed with flash in mind, but on rare occasions, I need to use full or fill flash. Do you have any opinions or recommendations there. I have been told that if a person needs flash at all, to basically forget about the M6. I just do not believe that. I looked at the G2 Contax, and was impressed with its lenses and flash capabilities, but I really want an M6. Again, I thank you for whatever time you can devote to sharing your opinions here.
