I would absolutely love to get an M6, even if it’s of cheaper build. I like the meter and I like the all black scheme. If you ever consider getting rid of it, I’d be more than happy to pay
The M6 top plate is zinc and when it corrodes it’s FUGLY. I think the CL is aluminum- all the other M’s are brass, with the exception of the flush mount late model M4-P’s that preceded the M6, are also zinc. The M4-Ps with recessed viewfinders are all brass
The M3 has one tragic problem. If you are lucky enough to have one and go incredibly stupid and trade it for other camera, your last words, as you lie on your deathbed, will be, “M3, M3!”
I love my Canon VT and VT Deluxe cameras. I agree that "feel" is a thing that matters.👍

Thanks Darko, I'll look into a CL right away.
I"'ll look after it for you 😃
Well, for 2000 euro - sure thing ;). I think I will sell my M6, lately looking at M6 more as a investment then a camera that I use.
M2.

Yes, you are right. Even without corrosion one can feel that there are cheaper materials used in M6.
