[Leica] ring flash and an M6 TTL

[rbaron at concentric.net (Robert D. Baron)]

Have you seen this?

I haven't seen one, but it looks intriguing.  I gather you hook the
flash to the hot shoe using a cord like a Nikon SB-17 (I think it is),
and I would think your Canon flash would do not harm but I give no
warranty, express or implied.

If you go this route please post your results and opinions.
