[Leica] M6 shutter

[Nathan Wajsman <nathan.wajsman@euronet.be>]

Dear fellow Leica devotees,

In playing with my newly acquired M6, I have noticed that the sound of
the shutter speed changes when the speed is slower than the x-synch,
1/50 sec. At 1/50 or
faster, there is just the click and no other sound. At 1/30 or slower
there is a distinct second sound, like a faint click as if something was
bouncing around. At the really slow speeds such as 1/2 sec. or 1 sec.
this becomes more pronounced. I have looked at the shutter action with
the lens removed, and visually everything looks fine. Is this normal or
should I be concerned?
