How would I go about plugging my M6 into my Alien Bees?

put a pocket wizard on it, and another on one of the AB's.

I don't have one, I was wondering how I would get the standard plug (that fits into a 5d) to fit into my leica which has two ports?

use the hotshoe to trigger the stuff. If nothing else, use a hotshoe to PC cord adapter.

I thought the M6 only had one PC socket, my late model M4p only has one wheras the older ones have 2.

Anyway, one of the PC sockets should be marked "M", the other marked "X", plug your cord into the one marked "X" as that is sync for electronic flash, the "M" socket is for flash bulbs.

Assume you know that the X sync shutter speed is marked on the shutter speed dial, believe it to be bettween 1/60 and 1/30 second, pretty slow for a sync speed, but we are talking Leica here.
