I'm curious as to how this could be done.

The M6-E or M6-A will keep the same structure of the M6 TTL, which is 1mm higher than the classic M6. They attempted to use a Japanese shutter, but couldn't get it into the shell. So they modified the mechanical shutter and added the A for automatic on the shutter speed dial. It might be shown at the PMA show coming Feb 2002, or they'll wait until photokina in Sept-Oct 2002. Glory be....Ed
