Are there different ETTL systems for Leica's various camera lines?

<p>Triggered by an ongoing discussion in another forum http://www.photo.net/photography-lighting-equipment-techniques-forum/00d2ks I am wondering if Ms use the same flashes as Ts & D-Luxes or if they all have different TTL flash control pins.<br>

Not sure if ETTL is the right term, anyhow I'd like to get a flash doing TTL on M8, MM etc and am wondering how limited my choices are.</p>

<p>I think the control layouts are the same. A Metz flash with the 3502 adapter will give you TTL flash capability with the M6TTL, M7, and digital Ms.<br>

Leica also has small compact TTL flash units under its own name (made by Metz, I believe) which are fully compatible.</p>

<p>Thanks for getting back Robert. - I just checked the Metz site and it mentions only various Leica R and M6/7 for TTL support with the 3502. So the question about ETTL(s?) for the digitals seems still open. Would be nice to be able to use a Metz with Panasonic & Leica foot on the Ms.</p>
