I was writing ONLY about the 35s. The dual-range will work on any M without the viewfinder. I have heard that it may not work WITH the viewfinder on some M6s, without modifying the viewfinder. Because of the much larger focussin cam on the DR, which I owned - and still do - before I bought my first M6 I was concerned that the larger cam might cut off or impede in some way the metering cell in the base of the M6. I wrote Wetzlar to ask whether it was a problem; they answered that they had taken all measurements and that I could use the DR on an M6. They did not discuss use of the DR with viewfinder on M6. Perhaps others on the LUG remember that discussion. Seth LaK 9 - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
