I was never sure about the focusing and the flash fill-in is not easy with that camera. (How do you underexpose the flash without underexposing the rest of the picture in order to have non obvious fill flash ?) It will be much easier with the M6 TTL + SF 20, leaving aside the 1/50 problem. In this case I think it's Leica which studied carrefully the Contax flash. ;-) Best, Lucien Brussels - Belgium
