It doesn'e get any better than this. The Leica M9

Just announced, not from Wetzlar but from Solms, Germany, it's the glorious LEICA M9. The real answer to the prayers of all of those who are at heart, leicaphiles. A full frame 24X36 Kodak sensor with 18 mega pixels. A dream come true indeed. We shall wait for further tests to see but from what we can see this is a true classic. A dream come rue for street photographers and events photographers who do not have to rely on the foibles of AF in low light. For the type of work I do, it's worth getting rid of all my gear just to get this gem and return to photography once more. No more silly beels and whistles, just a pure camera. A pure Leica. It doesn't get any better than this. And it was announced on my birthday. Coincidence?
