Could be because it’s older and worn. Something for me to get use to I guess! Do you plan on getting a half case for it? I've never had an M7 or original M6, so I wouldn't know. I do find it easier to press the dial center with the fingertips of the index finger and thumb and turn it. It's harder for me to press and turn with a single finger for whatever reason. It was the same way for me on the MP and M-A dials, so maybe I just am not pressing hard enough. I'm not sure about a half case. These film M cameras are so wonderfully small, it doesn't seem right to add a case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I bet the M6's will loosen up with use. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something to just get use to until it loosens up a bit more! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGodParticle/Hari Posted May 1, 2023 Share #1445 Posted May 1, 2023 M6 TTL still my personal fav. If the new M6 came in a black paint option, had a big shutter dial, and turned in the direction of the digital Ms, I’d get a copy - but all 3 seem out of the question. 🎉🍻 to the ones who enjoy the new one Welcome, dear visitor!

That is a testament as to how good looking the M6 is. When you travel you ignore the scenery and take pics of your camera. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that Millennium M6 … There is something about the combination of black paint AND the red dot… (Also the simplicity without “M6” engraving on the front) That camera is just a beauty. And I know that filter… This was a MapCamera Edition, wasn’t it? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good eye, it is the MapCamera Edition filter Yes, the M6 Millennium (0.72 Finder) and the M6 Dragon (0.85 Finder) are my fav M6 variants. The black paint is pretty resistant, not much brassing after moderate usage for years. M6 Dragon here with the 50/1.4 bp. The M6 Millennium is always paired with the 35/2 v2 black paint. Likely grabbing a 35/2 v1 black paint for the M7 0.58 Black paint … is there an end to this? Ever? 😄 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M6 Millennium, M6 Dragon, black paint M7… you got black paint issues… I suggest you send all of those to me and switch them for one silver chrome body for a while… free therapy 😉 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think this forum left me with any sanity? I have a full set up of chrome bodies and lenses. Whatever I buy in black, I buy a copy in chrome too - where available. After pestering Leica for awhile, they finally released the APO75 to my joy 😄 It was the only f2 lens for which I didn’t have an identical silver copy 😄 You wouldn’t happen to have MapCamera editions in 39mm and 55mm by any chance, would you?
