Thanks Davis, I will post this now. Can you tell me the store name?

And by the way it will be in Grey or Black. Grey not in the sense of traditional silver, might be more like the R9 grey.

I’ve really enjoyed these posts and have benefitted from them. I thought I would share that I just pre-ordered my M9 from a Leica store in Frankfurt, as I am planning to travel through Frankfurt shortly after September 9th. The price is $5,500 Euro, but you get a 19% VAT refund when you leave Europe. I will have with me a M6 during my trip, and will shoot some test images between the two (of course it is always tricky comparing a scanned Velvia image against a CCD image, but I’ll try my best)

will a sensor / electronics upgrade for the M8.2 be offered? (as promised with the much publicized M8 upgrade program).
If so, any clue about price?

With Leica it really doesn’t matter which price is which does it Eric :^)

So, is that list price or street price?
