It's a radio transmitter and reciever; the transmitter mounts on the hot shoe of the M6 and the receiver mounts with Velcro to the side of my flash powerpak. The pair cost me about $95. I've taken a set of test pictures on Portra 160NC and had them developed at my local 1-hour store, and I'm extremely happy with the results. It's funny: the Leica was originally invented to be an exposure meter, and that's what I'm using it for, since there's no 1-hour development service for the 120 film used by the Rollei. Brian
