Leica M9??

[WVCoalMiner]

Saw this today on Gizmodo.....

A supposed shot of Leica's M9—expected to be announced 9/9/09—complete with specs, was found on this Flickr page that's now locked, and it looks way interesting: a full-frame 18-megapixel CCD sensor.

While in the Navy, we photojournalist ( those photographers and journalists who were sent to study at Syracsue University's Navy Photojournalism Program) were issued two Lecia M-3's with a 35mm, 50mm, 90mm and a 135mm lenses, two Leciaflex SL2's with a 19mm, 35mm. 50mm. 90mm 180mm and 400mm lenses. Ha, we weren't spoiled...not a bit

That would be about right, spec-wise for a new Leica. Alot of people complained that the APS-C sensor didnt do the brand justice in the M8.

It'd be nice, but I don't like the price of the GF1, so I'm sure I won't like this.
