okay, much shorter post...

has anyone swapped out the viewfinder in an m6ttl for a different one? i want to put a .58 in a .85.

thanks for any replies.

It can be done. The problem is coming up with the finder you want to install. Leica won't sell a finder unless you turn in one of the same type/magnification. Sort of like turning in your old water pump for a rebuilt one. But that said, sometimes DAG will be able to come up with what you want. Maybe Sherry, too. Moi, I think it makes more sense to trade the camera for one with the finder you need.
 
just got an email back from leica...
