A recent M9 scare!

..... the M9 is a fantastic camera, just use OEM batteries and you will be fine!

The M-P 240 is also a fantastic camera, if you ever need/desire to upgrade if the sensor becomes and issue.

Look forward to more of you images.

Happy trails!
 
I will get some new Leica batteries for the M9, and then (hopefully) I will get years of enjoyment out of this camera. The M8 seems to be rock solid.
 
Thank you Andy. Having lived in the USA for over 34 years, I am still catching up with the acronyms used here.
 
I can hear the church bells sounding off here at 8am. The other sound is from the harbor. (water, birds, boats, ....).
We will drive to Padova/Padua today. It is a city that is close to Venice. Many years ago, the first botanical gardens in Europe were established in Padova. There is a train and bus ride to Venice from there. This way there is less hassle reaching Venice.
 
Raid,

Thanks for sharing your experience using a non-Leica battery on your M-9.

I've only been using the Leica battery on my M-9, but when I bought it used, the seller included some non-Leica batteries. I haven't used those yet, as I just keep recharging the Leica battery, but now I'm wondering if the same thing will happen on my camera.

Enjoy the Cinque Terre. I was there a while ago and very much liked it.
It's so different compared to other places in Europe. Most importantly, have fun on the rest of your trip.

Thank you, Ellen. I am now convinced not to use off-brand batteries in the M9. I have not seen reports with such problems in the M8.
 
I beat you to it!

I took this photo a few minutes ago from our room window. We are on the second floor, Robert.
We parked in front of the hotel for EURO 15/night.
