Digital Leica M8 / M8.2 / M9 / M-E /Mono / M10 aka "M" Discussions about the Leica M8 /M 8.2 / M9 / M9-P/ M-E / M Monochrom / M10 aka "M": Leica digital M mount rangefinder cameras. Naming the new digital M the "Leica M" is VERY unfortunate as it will only confuse newbies with other Leica M cameras of the the past. Happily there is room for confusion with only the past 59 years of Leica M production ... since Leica introduced the Leica M system in 1953. All Hail for the Leica Marketing Department learning Leica M history!

A hypothetical scenario, let’s say you won a drawing for a Leica R6.2 or R9. Which would you choose?

I owned the 6.2 in my film days. Now I'd take the R9 and get a DMR (is that included in the lottery?)

R6. No battery for shutter like the R9 and no whirring shutter sound at 1/250 like the R6.2. I've owned all 3 and prefer the R6.
