My M6TTL Black Paint is back from Solms having had the MP viewfinder upgrade installed. It is a massive improvement to my eyes. Previously I kept missing shots because of the quite frequent white-outs

Over the decades I have known some people who did not take to M Leicas and went with other brands. My own reaction to my M6 was one of panic. I had spent all the money I could raise on a camera which I could not focus. After the view-finder was fixed (more money), I found it much like my familiar old friends the M3 and the M2.

my very second hand M6 was my first Leica purchase.

 

I guess because it is very 'run in' it is still a favourite; tactile, a work of art, almost jewellery for blokes (!), and with modern lenses does what it says on the tin (sorry, brass).

 

I did not think twice about a second hand body - how many mechanical objects can you say that of?

 

In every respect it does everything the Leica manuals promise, I would guess it will for a couple of generations to come.

 

I get a similar feeling from my MP's, but they haven't yet lived through sturm and drang so they have not got that indefinable 'something' about them.

 

I can see why some people still use M3's; there is a certain aura to certain machines which cannot be accurately quantified

Another one because I love it and think it's a good shot (taken with my X100)
