Leica M6 TTL in chrome with added flash metering, the most feature-complete film M6 in traditional finish.
The Leica M6 TTL in Chrome is the updated M6 variant from 1998 that adds TTL flash metering to the M6 Classic's specification. The TTL flash enables automatic flash exposure with compatible Leica flash units — a significant convenience for indoor and fill-flash photography.
The M6 TTL adds the flash metering capability while retaining the fully mechanical shutter, ambient TTL metering, and universal M-mount compatibility. The chrome finish provides the classic traditional Leica aesthetic, and the slightly taller top plate accommodates the TTL flash electronics.
Build quality is Leica M standard with machined brass in chrome finish. The M6 TTL's taller top plate is the visual distinguishing feature from the M6 Classic, and the TTL flash capability adds genuine practical value for photographers who use flash.
The M6 TTL Chrome commands strong prices as the most feature-complete film M6 variant. The TTL flash adds genuine convenience for event and indoor photography, making it more versatile than the Classic for photographers who use flash regularly.
