Subject: [Leica] M6TTL and battery low indication
From: scott at adrenaline.com (Scott McLoughlin)
Date: Wed May 10 13:39:10 2006

The M6TTL manual says that low batteries will result in
flickering or fading in brightness of the metering diodes.

Mine seems to show a reading and then go blank. No
flickering or dimming  -  just showing a reading very
quickly and going dark.

Is this latter phenomenon also a manifestation of low
batter in an M6TTL? I've always assumed it was, but now
realize I'm not so sure.

Thanks.

Scott
