     nice shot !
     but, let me get this straight. you used _inboard_ metering ??!!
     not being familiar with the metering capabilities of the M6,
     is there a 'spot' or 'spot - like' setting ?

     best

     >light levels?

     *It is pretty accurate!  The newer M6's have more accurate metering in
     *low light than the older ones.  For an available darkness photo with
     *the the Noctilux wide open and 1600 film pushed to 3200 see:
