Thanks to all those leica-users who mailed me on how to connect 
properly. I had the wrong instructions from another subscription group.

Also just some comments I wish to make on Elmarit-M 28mm lens (Code 
11804) which I use on my M6. Sorry if this subject has arisen before. 
I just find this lens difficult to use because it blocks out half the 
viewfinder when mounted particularly with the rectangular lens hood 
(shade) in place. I am suprised as well that the hood is not slotted 
like the standard hood for the 50mm Summicron so that you can view 
through the back of it.

One lens I do like to use on my M6 is a Summaron f3.4/35mm with M3 
specs. It looks a little odd but works very well.

Best regards,
