I wrote about the M9 announcement date some time ago. Now, according to the french magazine “Chasseur d’Images” (#316) a conference for the M9 is scheduled by Leica for 09-09-09 at 09:09.

    This is sooo cheesy. I can`t imagine “ze germans” thinking this one through. It has to be a foreign idea behind all this.

    I`m not saying “it won`t happen”, I`m just easily amused.

    I bet they were thinking “let`s put it on september 9th `09 at that funky hour, so that no one will figure this out! We <> ™ “.

    I can barely wait for M9. Last month I cracked and bought a M6 and a CV 35/1.4 just to have some fun before “the pixel flooded Leica”.

    Cheers.

    I HOPE M9 HAS A OLED DISPLAY.

    Take it with a grain of salt. M9 will come and it will have a full-format sensor with maybe 24 Mpixels…

    And of course it will be $9,999.99 or worse, 9,999.99 Euros.

    did those poor buggers in the 1950’s have to get up in the middle of the night for the launch of the m3?

    Those wacky Germans probably will follow through.. The “Carneval” party (german Mardi Gras season) begins on 11/11 at 11:11. Helau!
