I have an M4 (among others) and the finder is much nicer overall than the M6. The extra lines does cause a lot of clutter. I must admit that it (the M6) is a little easier to use with the 75 Summilux but I purchased a Voigtlander 75mm BL finder for using the Summi on other bodies and it is very nice. Used, it was only $125 and well worth the money.
