Comments about Leica Leica M9 Digital Rangefinder Camera Body, 18mp with 24 x 36 mm Format Sensor - Steel Gray Paint:

Coming from a long line of canons including a 1Ds MkIII, this camera is by far the best camera I've ever owned, in resolution and IQ terms it is equal or better (in some cases) but, it's lite enough to carry all day including backpacking,it's discreet so that it does not scare people when you point it at them and it does not draw attention as an expensive "PRO" DSLR does. I was worried about the rangefinder learning curve, but what I really found in the process was that I was thinking more about my pictures and that turned out as better results.
