Just a shout out from another M6 user. I have the classic and same color too. Glad to see another film YouTuber. You might need a Leica trained technician to root cause the light leak. There appears to be a known issue with the shutter curtain over time. Mine has a horizontal stripes of leak on a couple of consecutive frames. This is kinda random. After searching the Internet, I found two ways to mitigate this. One, don't change lenses under the sun. Always go to a shaded area to do it. Second, don't set the aperture of your fast prime wide open while walking around. Hope this helps and🤞

M2 user here for over the past two years absolutely no thoughts of purchasing another camera. I am happy with what I have now. This I am grateful for because I have used A of camera's too. Hahaha.

Thanks for sharing your long-term Leica M6 review. I found it very interesting and very similar to mine.

I took my first photograph at age five with my father's medium format camera. I shot medium format for about 15 years before I purchased a small format camera. My first Leica was an M1 that I used on a microscope while I was in college. While in college and after I graduated, I shot photojournalism, documentary, portraits, medical/scientific, landscapes, street, weddings, and other social events. Before my M6, I shot Argus C3, Minolta, Canon, and Contax 35mm rangefinder cameras. Today, I shoot 21/35/90mm lenses on my Leica M6 and M10 rangefinders.

Video @ 8:47 "is it the camera's fault?" - As a camera technician who specializes in Leica repairs - - -
NO ! it's poor technician servicing. Trust me, there's NO EXCUSE for 2 or 3 ReDo's !

Awesome video, love the M6. I just bought a Canon QL17 from Japan on eBay. Almost finished my first roll through it, I'm looking forward to seeing if this Canon works properly. Looking forward to more videos from you :)

another great video!
could I ask where you got your strap for m6? I'm looking for short neck strap for mine but it's really hard to find one haha
thanks in advance and let's keep shooting!

Hi, the lightleaks should be fixed. It is not the camera. Good luck with the M6! Heel leuk dat je als Nederlander ook gave filmjes maakt op Utube! 👍🏼

Did you send it to Leica for the viewfinder upgrade and how much did you pay?
