marker Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 At the lokal shop I saw a M6F - Without a dot on the shutterblade. <p> What is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_kastner Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 I'm sorry but I don't know. I just phoned Solms and they don't know either. What do they say in your local shop itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xav Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 F? Are you sure it was not J? <p> Have a look there for the M6J: <p> <a href="http://www.cameraquest.com/leicam6j.htm">M6J</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackflesher Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 Could it be an M4 with an M6 finder and top-plate assembly? Is it chrome or black? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay_. Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 Get the serial#. That should tell the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_kastner Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 I couldn't find it in Laney's book. Osterloh didn't mention it either. Thus, it appears to be an absolute rarity. I'd say if it doesn't cost you much more than around 2000 USD, then just buy it now and sell it tomorrow and make a giant profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_albertson Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 It's useless in terms of metering---that white dot is what the in- camera meter takes its light reading from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_albertson Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 Ignore my last remark---I just remebered that the white dot doesn't appear until the shutter is cocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marker Posted October 12, 2001 Author Share Posted October 12, 2001 The answer is: <p> M4 with m6 finder (M6f). <p> Sorry for the confusion this question brought you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
