OH wow!!! What a beautiful camera, this is the first Leica M film camera I have ever gotten to hold. The M240 is huge compared to the M6. The M6 was dense not heavy and so freaking maneuverable, ninja stealth photography, how could you not fall in love with this camera.  If the M10 and M11 are that thin with all of the new tech, what a combination!!! and for those that shoot with it have fun!!

The other thing that caught me is that you don't need the thumb rest that goes in the hot shoe or the baseplate that has the extra handle with this camera (for me) That seems like an added bonus! The best part is no part functionality on display in that M6 form.

Leica sent mine a few months ago. Shows Spring 2023 build. Enjoying it very much. I had a mint cond early model with Leitz badge before and regretted selling it. I really appreciate the M-P elements built into this. The half case is by Angelo Pelle in Italy. I've used his cases and straps before and always well crafted. This one in Tuscan leather and on a big sale, hence my choice of color. The body sure seems slim compared to my Safari M-P 240.

I just saw these beautiful cutaway M6.......Would anyone actually buy these as a collector item and would it actually appreciate in value?
