Alfie lad,
For heavens sake get serious, this isn't a bunch of people with nothing more
to do with their time but play foolish games with their Leica's, M6 or
otherwise.

May I suggest old chap, load your camera and get the hell out of the house
then make useful time of life and shoot a zillion images.

Then after that, you'll be very very quick loading the M6 and not ever
consider it a "contest thing again."

Sorry to sound rather gruff, but the M6 is a taking picture camera not
playing toy time with it.
