I intend to eventually have at least a chrome 35/1.4 ASPH for my chrome M6 classic simply because it looks great. :-) Right now I have a black 35/2.0 lens. I don't know if I will buy another chrome body though. The M6 is great as a discrete camera, and black is more discrete than chrome. - -Rick in NJ On 9/13/01 1:18 PM, "Lee, Jonathan" <Jonathan.Lee@hrcc.on.ca> wrote: > I've noticed that the silver lenses sell for quite a discount on the used > market relative to the black ones.
