Because both M6TTLs that I bought last june do not have any flare. It would seem quite likely because if they have had the coating from a year ago on M7s that have been out in the field testing then it seems like a discovery they would have put on the M6s as well. ================================================================== Steve, What you say makes sense to me. I haven't noticed flare, under normal use, regardless of where the light is coming from, in either of the M6TTLs (.58 and .72) that I bought new during the last 4 months. I can cause the RF patch to white out ONLY if I deliberately position my eye too far to the left or right of the viewfinder centre.
