Film body · fit computed from manual-published dimensions
Camera bag for the Leica M6
The M6 measures 138.6 × 77 × 38 mm at 575 g . We test that box against the published interior of every bag in the catalog.
Honesty note: this body's dimensions come from an archived source we grade medium confidence — the original spec sheet either wasn't findable or doesn't publish a full spec table (details in the source box below). Measure your own body before buying a tight bag.
Bags that take a M6 (body only)
Film lenses vary too much to assume one — verdicts below are for the body alone. Add your lenses in the fit checker mindset: a body-with-lens needs meaningfully more room.

Where the dimensions come from
Verdicts are planning estimates from published dimensions, not guarantees — padded dividers eat interior space and vintage bodies vary. See methodology.
