The Leica M9 Titanium is now shipping to authorized dealers. The limited edition designed by Walter de’Silva was announced during Photokina. The set contains a 35mm Summilux lens, shoulder holster, carrying strap plus finger loops and two books illustrating the design process (some of the prototypes can be seen here). Another novelty of this limited M9 edition are sapphire crystal glass on the LCD screen and the LED illuminated frame lines (see picture after the break). Only 500 pieces were produced and currently the Leica Boutique in Palm Beach has one in stock.
This is how the LED illuminated frame lines of the M9 Titanium look like:
