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?
