Today Apple released Aperture 3 with RAW support for Leica D-Lux 4. Leica M9 is not on the list of supported cameras.
Amazon is now taking Aperture 3 pre-orders.

I love Aperture 2 so am very much looking forward to this Aperture 3. It works a lot better for me than Lightroom. Since the M9 uses DNG as the raw files, I imagine there is no need to specifically support the M9? My 9 DNG files work very well with Aperture 2 (and much faster then the .NEF files).
Aperture 3 supports the .RWL files directly from the camera, however… Because of aperture former lack of support i used Lightroom for my D-LUX 4. Lightroom converted the .RWL files to DNG’s which i thought was really smart. But the problem is that Aperture 3 seems not to support the DNG’s from D-LUX 4 so i can’t import my older photos! This annoys me very much and I really hope Apple is going to do something to fix it.
