Here is the text from the product listing:
The more experience we gain, the better we become at knowing our brand’s personality, goals, and strengths.
This applies just as much to a single camera’s life cycle as it does for an entire product family — especially one as legendary as the Leica M. Still, after almost 70 years, the Leica M-System preserves its ability to adapt to our times without compromising its core values.
Intuitive, compact, discreet: the M6 gets you closer. Close to the action and genuine emotion.For pictures that are impactful and personal. No wonder photojournalists have used this camera to capture unique images since the 1980s. And as the preferred tool for the world’s best photographers, the Leica M6 is behind countless iconic images immersing the observer in contemporary history.
