The motor lives on the M4-P, the RW on the M6TTL. I mainly use the motor for VR work where typically I have to shoot 8 shots in sequence to capture a 360-degree panoramic scene. The RW gets used on the M6 for candid work, mainly because none of my potential photo subjects can equate the trigger action with winding film. I have a detailed entries on both motor and RW at the Leica FAQ I maintain at: Motor: <http://nemeng.com/leica/#033b> RW: <http://nemeng.com/leica/#033ba> BTW, they are completely different animals. Use the RW for one-off shooting, use the motor for continuous or when you have to use a tripod (some of us do!). (Ahem...) of course some claim they can use the RW to shoot at 2fps... but I guess they don't need to frame their shots after #1. ;?)
