Basically you'll get all the same features minus the metering. My only m
body is an m4-p. If you have an m6ttl the shutterspeed knob turns
differently but that won't really matter since you don't have a meter. Also
you'll have all the same frame lines on both cameras.if it's under 800 bucks
I'd get it.-daniel
