Aargh! (For two reasons). One: I just bought an M6 HM TTL, so I'd have a second HM body. This brings me to, at least, the most M bodies I can possibly justify... and, at most, to the point of wretched excess. So I'd be a very very sickly over-indulgent boy if I bought one of these. Two: I still just don't think I really like the TTL (for reasons detailed earlier). So... that may save me from black-paint seduction, but God help me if they issued a black-paint pre-TTL HM body: I'd be all over it, and damn the torpedoes. So, whatever happened to that black-paint body the LHSA was planning to commission? Did that ever happen? So... this new body: is it black paint over lovely brass, the way it's meant to be? No, no, no... No more M6 bodies, Jeff. Go take pictures. -Jeff M.
