Don’t know how on earth the brochure got leaked into the market before the official announcement date on 09.09.2009. That was supposed to be the biggest news release date for Leica this year…but somehow the excitement got spoiled…or will there be more surprise? 😀
For those who are interested, I have uploaded the file below for sharing. The file size is around 7MB, copyright belongs to Leica I think…so at anytime I might have to remove it once Leica wrote to me… 😛
This is the cover page of the brochure…showing M9 there… 🙂
Thank you that I managed to have a glimpse of this wonderful camera. [In fact I accidentally surfed to this blog:)]
It appears to be much more beautiful than M8, resembling leica MP, and gone is the frame counter on camera top which I don’t like.
Hope the high ISO performance is as good if not better than D700. If so, sure I’ll make an order thru Shashinki 🙂
How about the use of 16-18-21 Tri-Elmar on M9? I thought it was designed for M8’s 1.33x crop?
Hi drer,
Tri-elmar should be full frame lenses. There might be heavy light fall off at edges, but I believe Leica does correction of the light fall off through software (hence the 6 bit coding).
The sensor should be from Kodak, not sure if they can produce on par results as per Canon or Sony sensor (in D700).
KK, if i were to order the M9 from you, can i collect in person and do you accept VISA ? what’s your offering for M9+summarit 50mm and M9+summarit 35mm ? I’m no professional nor amateur , just a pure beginner who admire LEICA M design and its lens performance. Good price please
Dear iwantM9,
Yes, you can self-collect, but our location is in Johor.
Sorry, we do not accept credit card and as the M9 is of expensive item, we do not keep stock will need customer to prepaid in advance before we order from Leica.
I have just uploaded the complete range of Leica M series lenses, prices are among the lowest even if you compared to oversea. Please check it out.
Thanks.
KK, thanks for the response. i visited shashinki and noted that M9 will be in stock this 14th Oct 2009. Doesn’t that mean you receive stock by then ? of which i can pay a visit to JB and have a feel of M9 before i can commit buying this beauty ?
Hi iwantm9,
Leica M9 will release on 14th Oct 2009 in Malaysia. I am not keeping stock for the camera due to the very high price. I will only order it when there is a confirmed order from my customer.
Sorry, can’t open the M9 for customer to test unless confirmed buying. Nobody will want a M9 that has been tested by others… 😛
OIC, fair enough.
Will wait for the release date then and see how. Thanks for your replies anyway.
what’s its price now? i really in love with this camera
