First Day with Leica M9

[Nick De Marco]

I finally did it. Yesterday I traded in 3 cameras and some cash to get a mint M9. I'm delighted so far...

Please have a look at my blog uploaded today so see some of the photos, and my first thoughts. Rangefinder Chronicles: Thursday 14 July, 2011

Hope to post more photos, rather than gripes, here 🙂

Here are a few from the first day:

Nick - what a balanced account. Thanks. If anything would convince me to get the M9 (apart from winning the lottery) it would be your 'Toga' shot. Congratulations.

P.S. two edits so far - english is such a difficult language after a couple of glasses of good wine

The self-portrait would have been a great photo for the introduction to that exhibit!

After you gain experience with the M9, I would be curious in how large you have to print for the resolution differences between it and the M8.2 to become apparent.
