Hello, I'm new to this forum

The Leica M6 and 50summicron is the quintessential combo (next to the 35cron), so you've definitely started on the right foot in the world of RF's. Enjoy the ride.

I thought the 50 would be a good first lens. When I used to shoot with SLRs I always did well with a 50, and when I first started out that's all I had to work with.

I did find when I was on my trip in Mexico that a 35 or wider would have come in handy. So I think a 35 will be next. Not sure which one to get yet. So I'll take recommendations.

Matt, that's a great photo of a great guitar!
 
I have no idea about guitars and amps but like your shots of them ! 😎 Welcome to the forum ! 🙂

Thank you. I look forward to taking part in this community. Rangefinders are new and fun to me, although before the M6 I did have a Canonet QL17 and QL19, but I only shot a few rolls through the 17. Great results with it.

The M6 is a pure pleasure to use. I just even like having it with me and holding on to it.

I am smiling nodding my head as I read your last sentence. Well done. Enjoy !

[...] I registered for a while back, but had trouble being able to reply or start posts, and I couldn't get through to the administrator, but finally I sent an e-mail directly to Stephen Gandy and he fixed that.

And another hello to all and a vote of thanks to Stephen who similarly just sorted out my long incompletely registered account. Thank you, Stephen.
 
welcome. yeah I'm not quite sure what happened there for me. But I'm glad it's fixed now. This is a great forum. Lots to look at and read. and it makes the attached pictures look good with the gray backgrounds.
