You will have to buy a M9 with new sensor or pay to have yours repaired or take a Leica trade up to 240. M10 not an option so far.

50 ASPH Lux is a magical lens. Easy to carry unlike Noct. I personally would like a M10 + lux

I'd rather have the M9 and the Summilux. Wait a minute! I do have an M9 and a Summilux! I did have the M8.2 and the Noctilux. I sold both and now have the M9/Summilux combo. The M8.2 was nice in some ways, but it wasn't full frame; and I couldn't manually enter my lenses to take advantage of the custom corrections for each lens. The Noctilux was too heavy, out of scale and out of balance on the M body for my taste. Noctilux "Magic?" It's spherical aberration and coma. There are cheaper ways to get that. Get an M9 with a replaced sensor, and pick up a Lux.
