KM-25 Posted August 31, 2009 Share #221 Posted August 31, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Too late to talk Leica into loaning you an M9 to try!, Leica can see you disrespecting digital capture in your sig block for 700 posts or so 1000 rolls of Kodachrome might represent the majority of the world's holdings. Kodak might buy some back from you! Best keep your fingers crossed that the last lab doesn't shut down before you use them all up.! Nah, it's fine and I bet I get sponsorship based on the conversations today. And I talked to Kodak Friday, there is a lot more than 1,000 rolls out there bud, try more like 40,000-70,000. And to the final remark, we Kodachrome users are fine until at least 12/10, that is a contractual obligation and will net Dwayne's a healthy profit and I have a professional relationship with the lab that goes back to the founding of the project in 2004. Any other stabs at what I do? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Hi KM-25, Take a look here M9 spotted in Leica Youtube Video.... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
leica007 Posted August 31, 2009 Share #222 Posted August 31, 2009 This is beginning to get a bit anal, guys. Pretending that you can measure to within a 1mm accuracy from a YouTube video HAS to be pushing the boundaries of sanity... sane people are boring guessing is fun - we are all guessing here, and we shall see on 999 what's in store and whether it's 1mm less or more:D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other stabs at what I do? No stabs, just meant to be a light hearted joke. 1000 rolls would have to be more than the average enthusiast has tucked away, hence the joke about having the majority of holdings. My apology if you took offence, see the smilie, bud. Good for you on Dwayne's, enjoy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Thompson Posted August 31, 2009 Share #224 Posted August 31, 2009 OK here you go jquimby - do the same thing to this M8.2 and see what you get?

(Sorry for the poor pic it was all I could manage at short notice!) that won't work - you used too much wide-angle. maybe someone should call CSI. i've seen them doing measuring-stuff like that.

Gismoto Posted August 31, 2009 Share #228 Posted August 31, 2009 Looks as if they has got rid of the S-mode. It bit hard to see on the images, but to me it looks as the weel goes: A - B - 8s - 4s - 2s - 1 - 2 - 4 - 8 - 15 - 30 - 60 - 125 - 250 - 500 - 1000 - 2000 - 4000 I think they just moved it to the menu (see shot of menu where is says: Auto Iso...)

It's all good, the internet reads weird, I am darn excited to hear what we have in store for 999 though...hoping it is a 9 that does not cost close to 9.

johnbuckley Posted August 31, 2009 Share #230 Posted August 31, 2009 Geoff I have gathered that now I wonder if this is the fastest developing thread ever on the forum? Andy - interesting you would ask. This thread has more than 9000 views. Interestingly, he YouTube video has only 300 plays -- all of them from this group of Leica fanatics, no doubt!

rosuna Posted August 31, 2009 Share #231 Posted August 31, 2009 Anyone else notice this @ 54s? Is the first test picture from the M9? Well, it doesn't look very sharp... and it is very noisy... ISO 640? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzk Posted August 31, 2009 Share #232 Posted August 31, 2009 Certainly not as significant as the question itself 42? Is the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything! ahhahahahahaha ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WPalank Posted August 31, 2009 Share #233 Posted August 31, 2009 Yep, that's the same knob. My M8u's one is identical. Thank you Maurizio, Can you or someone with a M8u verify that the dial also has 4s, 8s (the s is the questionable feature) as opposed to just 4,8.. like the M8 or M8.2?

geaibleu Posted August 31, 2009 Share #234 Posted August 31, 2009 With all due respect, so far most if not all participants have failed their entrance exam to Interpol/FBI scientific detective positions. The key word was "bahnbrechende Produkte", meaning you are being shown the wrong road. The new product will thus undoubtedly be the R 10! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJones Posted September 1, 2009 Share #236 Posted September 1, 2009 looks clearly to be 8s serial number? Welcome, dear visitor!

Guest WPalank Posted September 1, 2009 Share #237 Posted September 1, 2009 looks clearly to be 8s Yes, But many are claiming it to be the shutter speed dial of a M8u. I don't have one so I can't verify. All I know is that the M8 and M8.2 do not have an "s". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes mine does. I think the new dial is identical to the one used for my upgrade. See the flash synch speed. No S mode either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
