Dear Solms:

I have only two wishes for your *superb* M6 TTL:

1. If it is at all possible, please reduce the flaring in the rangefinder so
I can eliminate the rather silly-looking blacktape awning I've constructed
over the frameline window.

2. Can "Off" please mean "no photograph possible" rather than just "no meter
possible?"  I dutifully turn the shutter speed knob to Off before stowing
away the camera as the manual instructs, but that doesn't prevent the
shutter from being tripped (esp. with a softie).  I now have too many photos
of the inside of my camera bag, and while it is lovely, dark and deep, I
have many photographs to take (and miles to go before I wake...).

Sincerely,
Not griping, just offering constructive criticism
