I might be wrong, but I don't think they still sell M6 TTL brand new at dealer ship anymore.

The more RAM the better. I would go w/ at least 512K of ram. Samething w/ hard disk. At least 60G of disk space of you can. Right now for about $600 you can get a pretty decent computer that would fit your need. If its come w/ PCI Express that would be terrific. As far as processor goes, personally for me I would stay w/ Pentium or AMD. Don't care much for the celeron processor (no flames please). Good luck.

 

PS. if you can also get a decent graphics card. I have an old Radeon 9800 and it's nice.

Very cool. Did you bake the paint also? Looks very nice.

A while back (don't know if it's still true), it's pretty hard to take film canister out of VN. It depends on the inspection at the airport and who is doing the inspection.

For now, I would have to say yes. It's just plain fun to shoot with an M.

John, do come back now and then. You're contribution has been great. You'll me missed.

I've just got a Leica mag yesterday. In it there is a section stated that Leica will pick up your camera for free and service it w/ a one year warranty. I don't have any experience w/ Leica service but it may worth a shot. Good luck.

 

PS I've heard a lot of good things about DAG. My local used Leica camera shop used him a lot.

Too much flash. What flash are using w/ this R6?

I am thinking of getting a P&S for my wife. I was torn between the

minilux (fixed lens) and the contax T3. Anybody here had/have

experiences w/ either or both? I was even thinking about getting her

a Canon G5 too. So please throw in you 2 cent worth for this camera

too. She would probably use this P&S for kids pictures. Right now I

have an M6TTL and kinda lean toward the Minilux.

 

Thanks

Yes I still would.

Thanks for the pics. Bring back alot of memories. Hopefully someday I get to go back there and vist.

can't complain. The service was great.

Flame you? No, can't do it since I still am shooting w/ my M6TTL. My digital is collecting dust. Don't have an M6. Maybe I should flame you for not using an M6TTl :-) I enjoy your pics alot regardless of the camera that you are using. If I ever buy anything more up to date I would be an M7 or 35 summicron.

another reason for me to like Jamie Lee Curtis. Did you invite her to join this forum?

If you think I'm mad about the MPs wait until you see my master.

Sorry to hear about the troubles you're having w/ the MPs. Hopefully things will turn out OK.

Thanks John. Now I have some fun stuff to read.

Contax G1. It's a backup for my M6TTL. Nice lenses for the money.

Congrats John. It's a beautiful combo.

Congrats on a nice combo. I've been contemplating on getting another M6TTL (.58 this time) since there are quite a few around.

I've just read something about the MP today. I slightly confused over the difference between the two (M6 and MP). It seems like the MP just has a slightly better build than the M6 and slightly better TTL metering for flash than the M6TTL. If this is the case, I am with Travis, I'll just stay with my M6TTL.

Have always love my Leica. Had never fall out of love of my Leicas.

Yep, I've just noticed that too. Just got the big book from B&H and the scanner wasn't there anymore. Looks like I have to find one locally now.

It might be the seller just lost his job and had to sell. There are many reasons for selling your custom gears.
