edstock Posted September 18, 2020 Share #1325 Posted September 18, 2020 Okay so I decided to add an M6 to my Leica M stable. That stable contains an M4-P and M7. I purchased it from Houston Camera. The ad showed it was just CLA'd by Leica, they even included the paperwork in one photo. So that should be good for another 25 years plus. It saves me from having to send it to DAG for checkup and service. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind when shooting with both the M6 and the M7, that the non-TTL M6 rotates the shutter dial in the opposite direction than the M7 does. Still confuses the heck out of me ;). I know the reason why the change was made in the M6 TTL (which is the same direction as in the M7) to accommodate for the rotation of the aperture ring in Leica M lenses. Well, I never felt that this is important but others might differ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwphil Posted October 22, 2020 Share #1328 Posted October 22, 2020 Serial number on a M6 titanium - #2287989 looked in a few sites, including the ones mention in this thread, and can't quite find a match.... Any help or info would be appreciated. Thanks Phil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raid Amin Posted January 10, 2021 Share #1331 Posted January 10, 2021 I love my M6 Classic with the .85 finder. Yesterday, I replaced the battery for its meter. It will last me for at least one year. I have on it the Voigtlaender 50/1.5 Nokton (for the Prominent), and it is loaded with EFKE 100 B&W film. I also love my M3. It has on it a Hologon 16/8. Both cameras peacefully co-exist in my camera bag. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
