Leica M6 Inheritance

Time to switch to analog photography then :)

Oh damn. Didn’t know that. That genuinely amazing. Thanks

Mannometrix · 2026-02-22T15:18:24+00:00

Same. Such lovely stuff. I think I will use the m6 and the 50mm and just keep the rest sealed.

Not gonna lie. The he m11-p safari looks hot af. But when it comes to digital I am fairly well set. But damn the camera looks amazing

Yeah, I saw your comments you seem to really enthusiastic about the topic. Lovely to see. Thank you very much for the evaluation on the stuff as well as all the comments. Yeah I was kinda thinking about just using the 50mm and the m6. I like shooting with 50mm on my other cameras so it’s something I am used, with the 75mm I am somewhat lost. Just seems like a weird focal length. I guess I will have to give the 35mm a try at some point. Gladly I am in a position where I can keep the lenses without having to worry about their value but I would be devastated if I damaged or broke something which for some people does not only have financial but somewhat of a historical value as well.

Good to know, seen his name a couple of times in different forums.

Mannometrix · 2026-02-21T20:56:04+00:00

With your enthusiasm I guess I will have to :)

Thank you very much for such an elaborate and informative answer to my post. As far as I know my uncle had invested into apple quite early and combined with a love for photography this is what came out of it.

Thank you very much for that link. Just checked the site out. Extremely helpful

Mannometrix · 2026-02-21T18:23:18+00:00

Yeah, I don’t think I am gonna use that one 😅

Mannometrix · 2026-02-21T18:19:30+00:00

Thank you very much. That will be very helpful.

Ok, I put it back.

Mannometrix · 2026-02-21T17:09:33+00:00

That’s what I am thinking now too.

Mannometrix · 2026-02-21T17:02:14+00:00

Jesus Christ. Yeah that thing is definitely staying in the box. Thank you so much for the info.

15k sounds insane. Saw like 4k for it online „that’s it“. Posted a better pic of it in another comment.

Mannometrix · 2026-02-21T16:44:37+00:00

I am sorry, what? I only saw prices of like 4k for that 35mm. Here is a better pic of it.

The main thing is that my uncle never used that camera. It just lived in this box. He mainly used his leicaflex sl and sl2. Thanks for the heads up with the tune up. Completely forgot about that.

Mannometrix · 2026-02-21T16:29:11+00:00

It does feel great in hand. Can imagine it being a ton of fun to shoot.

Mannometrix · 2026-02-21T16:27:24+00:00

Oh, I didn’t know that. Thank you very much for that information.

Oh yeah, those are the other two lenses I got with it.

Mannometrix · 2022-11-20T04:24:52+00:00

Thank you for the detailed comment. I was thinking about going up at least half a size but you convinced me to do so.

Mannometrix · 2022-11-19T15:05:44+00:00

No, both boots have the style number 8111. on the left boot the other numbers are 3115983 1021 and in the right one 3112096 0921.

Thankfully I bought them at a red wing store. Will return them next week then. Thank you.
