Yeah! The other day, I was up in the mountains, there was a very shiny sun 
and white snow everywhere. I had a 50 ASA Pan-F in my M6, with a dark red 
filter, a 1/1000 and still had to go up to f8. Then some tourists made digi 
p&s portraits of each other - it flashed everytime. They tried to stop the 
flash but didn't find out how...
