Would like some advice. M6 + lens compatibilty

[bayerische]

I have an M6 Classic.

I have found a Konica Hexar RF with a 50mm F1.2 lens.

Is this lens compatible with LEICA M6?

What is a Konica Hexar + this 50mm F1,2 lens worth?

A QUICK answer is appreciated!

Thanks

The lens will mount on the M6, but some caveats apply.

The 1.2 and Hexar RF are mated by the factory so that it will focus correctly when wide open and up close. This implies that it may be just off on your particular M6. 'May' is the key word here. It may work well, it may not work well.. only trying out can tell. It's the same as when you'd use another Hexar RF body with it.

From f1.4 there should be no problem.. It's only at the widest.
