Hello Folks,
I just got my leica M6TTL 0.58 today with 35 cron ASph, and once I put the first roll on it
and switched the meter on I found no info inside the viewfinder like the manual says if the
shutter exposure meter dial turned on it will give you info if the exposure correct or not by
displaying two triangular shape and one circle LED. So far I think might be the batt but I'm
not sure, Anyone has advise for me what to do? thanks guys and appreciate all info!.

Everyone that has convinced me on getting my Leica venture and the choice is M6ttl (0.58)
and 35/2 cron Asph. Both I got for used and probably after I've getting used with this
combo I have plan that would like to add one more lens (90 or 75). I do have one question
for those who use 0.58 M with tele lens such 90 how's the frame line working? I read Erwin
Putts that 0.58 is good enough with lens up to 90 but he also recommend 0.85 for the
lens 90 or above . So that's why while I'm saving more money to buy tele lens I would like
to know and learn experience from other forumers. Also my other choice for tele would be
75/2 cron, is this better than the 90/cron? to be used with 0.58 frame line. Thanks again
everyone have a nice weekend!

Seems that their price is cheaper than US and got a question about warranty or passport in
leica terms right? do leica USA will honour the warranty? . My Dad is travelling to
hongkong in next couple of weeks so in the mean time I'm still considering whether buy
here in US or there to save some money. So any experience from forumers will much be
appreciated, Thanks!.

Which is better combo? Leica M body with Voigtlander lenses or Voigtlander body with
Leica Lenses? Am thinking M6 ttl with CV 35/2.5 or Bessa anykind with 35/2 cron. Thanks
for any advice!
-
supposedly the E-3 and E-500 would be the improvement over their predecessor so I
guess higher and more expensive (I personally hope not).

Bla bla bla bla bla, you guys too much talk! just shoot on whatever you have and can
afford. I guess famous photograhers Ansel Adam, HCB, etc never spent too much talking
on gears,instead just went out and shoot!.

Maybe a stupid question but I really don't know about this, am planning to buy some ND
filters and polarizer. Do you think the end result would be the same? say if I use provia
100 or I use digi Slr with ISO 100. Thanks and appreciate all infos!.

Anyone has experience with the above lens? seems pretty interesting lens but boy it's
soooo expensive (for my pocket for sure), anyway sample taken with the lens would be
great!.

But then again I think Olympus will come out with newer E series with more pixels,
features etc. As for now I think I have set my mind to give a try on this system and will see
how's the performance. Thanks Guys and any other opinion all greatly appreciate it.

PS: How're U doing Mark! I bought your famous 85/1.2 L a while back, it's damn beauty
lens :)

Hello all,
How's the capability of this camera to be used for photojournalist work? I'm interested with
the camera but lack of lenses choices for fast prime is my prime consideration. How are
their zoom performance? . I used to have Canon 10D (never really like it with the 1.6
factor) and now considering the 20D to upgrade ( Canon 1 series camera such as 1D mkII
is out of reach for now). E-1 has caught my intentions so please any experience from
forum member would be highly appreciated!.

Just keep posting your pics, one will never tell whether it's from "Leica" or not. I think S.Liu
one of those who always posted pics from His/her famous "Holga"? I have Rolleiflex 3.5
Xenotar and love that camera but I just don't have scanner in order to post some pics ( I
know it's lame, oh well...). Happy shooting and enjoy the TLr experience you'll love it!

Thanks guys for the info really appreciate and now off to the owner and let him face the
reality :).

Ok guys, one last question on price on these two lenses. I have an offer of 35/2 cron pre
asph with serial # 368xxxxx and 90/2.8 eLmarit M and both condition are 10 out of 10
even they both consider used (the owner is a collector) and he offers me for $1800 with
Lens holder that attached on the bottom of the camera and 5 filters, is this a good deal?
thanks much people you guys are awesome!!!!

Hello all,
How much is a fair price on 50 Cron Canada made 11819 on excellent plus condition?
thanks.

I'm still pretty much a " LeiCan'T"

Thanks Folks!!!, I've been searching and seems it is 35/2 cron is more expensive than the
50/2 cron (all latest model) and I think I would give a try the 35 cron first. If money
allowed I would look upon a good deal on the 50. I pretty much have the budget for 35
cron and just have to be patient on the wait list here and the evil "BAy". One more question
folks, do you think the new 75/2 cron would be an awesome performance? how much is
the price? based on erwin puts that Vic gave the link above I think my camera should be
fine with the focal length. Thanks again I'm beginning impatient to start posting pictures
here :).

Hi Guys,
Camera M6TTL (0.58) is on the way (Got it from other forumer's here) and now my lens
choice. I'm eyeing on 35/2 cron and the 50/2 cron, what would be good option for me to
start? I appreciate any input for all forumers here and I can't wait for my new photography
journey with leica :)

Hi all,
I will have an opportunity this summer to attend a fashion show event ( a friend of mine is
one of the featured designer) and would like to know what is the usual lens to be used
alongside the stage? also is there any specific technique? or is it just the same as
photojournalist? thanks in advance!

I will also gone nuts if I don't get my first leica soon :)

Okay Guys my tax fund would be in possesion shortly and I'm planning to dip in $2000 for
my long time passion of leica M, so what can I get? a used M6 ttl with a lens maybe 35/1.4
lux? or just 35/2 cron? I try to look at KEH.com but seems they don't have any m6ttl in
stock so I dunno what is the market value nowdays and eBay sometimes just don't really
have any standard on used price. Some people just bid high and put the price well above,
anyway Can't wait for my adventure with "M" and thanks for any infos! Btw anyone selling
their beloved M6? email me pleaseeeeeee...:)

Funny, I just bought and got my M6TTL 0.58 and 35 cron asph yesterday from him and the
combo is just awesome. My highly recommendation for him to anyone who has interests
to deal (buy&sell) with him.
