This way Leica could up the sync speed to 1/250 sec. Then the M6 would be perfect for outdoor flash. I also think that they should also make a model just like they do now for everyone that does not want the electronic shutter. >Fred Jackson Comment : there are 2 problems. 1. A new shutter forces to rebuild entirely the diecast chassis. Very costly. 2. A new shutter must be as silent (and poor in vibrations) as the actual one. Dominique Pellissier
