And as predicted, the negative comments have already started before they even have dinner at the event!

I've decided against the 50/2. That $125 cap is just too expensive for me. Have to draw the line somewhere.
Don't go away.. there is another cap for $40 for low budget considerations.

I think this is a good move. I hope for lots of people lusting for this M9-M so that there are more normal used M9 on the market.

I can guarantee that in reality there would only be more people that will frown upon a $7k 50/2.
I guess it's called common sense.
It's certainly a move only Leica can pull off...

what?
That new Leica 50 mm must therefore make images that are 40 times nicer than my $200 Nikon 50/f1.8 ? 
Actually I am jealous of the folks who can drop that much money on a lens, but I can still make fun of them, can't I ?

Ditto. Having bought my X-Pro1 only a few days before this event, I thought I was asking to be made to regret it (daydream thoughts of a $2k Leica CL Digital - HA!).
What's doubly annoying is these new products are so expensive, they sit above the existing lines. So instead of (as we see with most digital photography gear) pushing prices of older gear down, they are going to almost pull the prices up (suddenly previous generation summicrons looks like bargains)!

The new 50mm Summicron is more expensive than the 21mm Summilux.... that sort of defines crazy, to me. And I have irrational feelings about Leica....

The only really upgrade to the X1 would appear to be the possibility of adding an EVF
