Several readers asked me if the Leica M9 will stay in production after the announcement of the M9-P. I contacted Leica Camera USA and they confirmed that both M9 and M9-P will stay in production.
Leica M9-P is expected to start shipping in late July 20111 in the US (already shipping in Europe in limited quantities). The price difference between the M9 and M9-P is $1000.
