Leica to announce a new M-mount M6 film camera in Oct 2022

Why stop there? With the Leitz toast, you can have a morning aspherical coffee in an Elmugarit.

I used to have a limited edition white toaster. I think it was a rebranded Panasonic. The less said about it the better. I now have a re-issue chrome one which seems to be doing the job pretty well. I swapped out the red dot with a black dot I got from DAG so it was more inconspicuous on the counter.

So, who bought a new M6?

LOL! You know, on reflection, I could see my way to buying one of these instead of an M-A simply because there is no significant difference between my M4-2 and the M-A, other than the rewind knob, and it might be nice to have a metered Leica M film body too.
But my interest is strictly future tense, and still a point of some decision making, not past tense and a done deal.. 🙂

I have been thinking about buying a Leica since 1973, but I still need to give it some more thought.

You might want to re-phrase your question to get an affirmative answer: 那么谁买了新的M6？

Maybe that is what he wants. The world is not defined by our wants. Folks have their own wants, without your permission.

I'm just here to giggle at you having to remind an apparent F.A. Hayek fan of the subjective theory of value.

Good one - LOL!

You have to use character code literals in the form "ampersand-pound-{number code}".

I found it difficult to watch that 'unboxing' video. Editing is always the short suit of those videographers. I have an M6. It's terrific. It has a couple of scratches when I walked through a trip wire in a coastal town and was nearly dead from the approaching garbage truck. Amazed my expensive equipment didn't fare worse. All the pictures I took of my small children were taken with that M6. It is still in perfect workinng order. But my M2. That is a camera apart. It is the MA, only better. So a new M6? Pass. A new M? Either the MA or the MP. And in Melbourne on Saturday seeing second hand M2s for over $2000 AUD: might be that a new camera is a realistic proposition. If I was just starting out.

Thank you, G.
