Well...!  You can buy the new Leica flashgun which I hear works well
with
an M6!  This is the one made for the new Minilux Zoom, but it is a
standard
hot-shoe gun so should work with anything.  It's guide number is 20
(meters)
which is fair for a small gun, and it sells in the UK for around =A375
which would
be about 100 US$.

(...sorry, US translation: in the UK we call flashlights "flashguns" or
just 'guns
for short.)

Simon.
