geesbert Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share #21 Posted September 7, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Ah, you forgot that "shure" is sure and "bancrupt" is bankrupt and I'm going to blame all my errors about the M9 on my aunt because my uncle is a Nikon user. offshore: don't be such a tosser! I guess as you're coming from the motherland of sophisticated english, you don't have to demean yourself in expressing your opinion in any other language than your own! How about you try to utter one sentence in German? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 Hi geesbert, Take a look here so many were wrong. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
markowich Posted September 7, 2009 Share #22 Posted September 7, 2009 It was not that many people revised their idea of the law of physics, it was Kodak or whovever designed the sensor that did a formidable job.We haven't seen the vignetting yet , but anyhow the manufacturer of this sensor must have made a huge step forward in comparison with existing sensors equiped with microlenses to make this possible at all. Hans my guess is that there will be a lot of invisible in-camera image processing going on. this is in my view an absolutly legitimate supplementary measure to optical path corrections. peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adan Posted September 7, 2009 Share #23 Posted September 7, 2009 Reminding people of the @#$% stoopid comments they made based on zero evidence is never a bad thing. Hold everyone responsible for what they say on the Internet, and it will be a better world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bertolotti Posted September 7, 2009 Share #24 Posted September 7, 2009 I quickly made some surfing on past posts... : I'm pretty sure the M9 will be a down-sized M8, instead of an up-sized one. (1/9/09) R lenses will have their own body well before we'll see an M9.(18/01/09) my guess - m9 will be .72x (20/8/08) I only suggested that the M9 should have a built-in coffee maker. I thought it was a good idea (4/8/09) I think there is a M8.3 (upgrade the sensor) coming in september and a M9 for next year (photokina).(6/8/09) M9 will be FF, 18MP, Euro 5,500 and now taking reservations... (10/8/09) …(answer)…………This dealer is getting a lot of free publicity ....(answer).............and in view of the known facts, little credibility. In any case, there would soon be a used market of M9's at 2/3 the price (15/3/09) We are not going to get a full-frame M tomorrow or the next day (30/7/09) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leicajh Posted September 7, 2009 Share #27 Posted September 7, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) I apologize in advance, I mainly speak Texan.

andybarton Posted September 7, 2009 Share #30 Posted September 7, 2009 Why? Amongst all the white noise, there are some very pertinent posts and threads. VERY senior people at Leica are members here too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geesbert Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share #34 Posted September 7, 2009 we Germans are world famous for not having any sense of humor at all, otherwise we wouldn't be able to produce those strange cameras. On the other hand, if the only way to express any humorous attribute is a smiley appendix, how good was that humor in the first place? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbuckley Posted September 7, 2009 Share #35 Posted September 7, 2009 I think you have mis-read me. I didn't mean to sound like I was jumping on Leica. I am just used to large businesses not really listening to the users. Let's just go take photos. Smart businesses listen to their most loyal, informed customers (which is what the LUF comprises.) And Leica's not that large a company. Very smart of them to observe the insights of this community. It also sounds like they've listened to people like Sean Reid, who from the first days of the M8 was arguing for easier access to ISO changes...

luigi bertolotti Posted September 7, 2009 Share #36 Posted September 7, 2009 Your survey looks somewhat biased my friend. Well, it was not a serious statistic... just a casual pick, and I think none of the observations denotes stupidity... the suggestion of used M9 at 2/3 the price is already making me think... M8 was my first Leica bought as brand new... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

apitong Posted September 7, 2009 Share #38 Posted September 7, 2009 With benefit of hindsight: all the new wide angle Summiluxes were not developed to please M film users. Leica never made lenses like Canon EF-S specifically for a small sensor. The recent Summiluxes will be perfect on the M9. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
