Hi Martin:
Not funny - ( just kidding).
I have a similar problem with my M6 Classic - and am wondering what is going
on. In my case, I push down on the shutter release and instead of engaging
the metering (when the little red lights are supposed to go on) they either
flicker or don't show at all. I changed to fresh batteries but found it
didn't help. It feels like the shutter release just bypasses whatever it is
that turns the exposure meter lights on and goes all the way down and trips
the shutter.
After I removed the film, I did a dry run (no film) maybe twenty times and
at different shutter speeds and found that it was working as it should.
Anyone have an idea of the problem or what is causing it?
Thanks,
Ted
