Merci, guys. Now I need to redo my recent trip to Paris with the M9.

I have no more kidneys left so what's next? I propose a new subsection of this Forum: "Body parts for sale" :D

Lens, yes, which new lens?? Hmmmmm. No, first enjoy the ones I've got. They are all new again thanks to the M9! Hey, that's a great marketing one liner for Leica: "Renew all your lenses for free when you buy a Leica M9"

I'd give my left_________ for a call from Camera West saying they are sending mine out.

I don't need _______ anymore anyway :shocked:

Congrats...

Saw the steel grey at Photoplus Expo in NYC and it definitely looked better in person. If they were more readily available I would have considered it.

share us some steel gray photos! I haven't been seeing enough of the steel gray (other than the press release shots) :)

I got mine from Ffordes. Thanks again for the tip Jaap. I send them an email at the end of September and asked them what their expected delivery time would be. I thought I was very late and would have to wait till next year. Somehow Steve Byford is able to get cameras in fast.

The price is about the same if I order in the Netherlands (which I also tried but for example Nivo Schweitzer, where I previous bought my Leica gear, were very slow to respond to my emails).

I haven't had much time yet to take photos. This weekend I hope to be able to post some results.

Don't forget to claim your passport warrantee, Maarten. One of the advantages of buying in the UK.
