Sounds pretty accurate. It's Leica. They can come up with a price and charge what they want, because they don't need your money, you want their producits. It puts them in an advantageous position when it comes to setting prices.

[crazzy88ss]

Ok... why would I want that camera over something else?

[MS Pandya]

Leicas are manufactured to extremely high standards, which does for one dictate their prices. The tolerances of what Leica deem acceptable are far tighter, resulting in more waste. As a result, their products are top notch. Specifically why you'd want an M9 though, is because M series rangefinders are extremely discrete and subtle, and have been described as the ultimate for street and candid photography. That, and insanely good and legendary glass like the f/0.95 Noctilux. You are right though, in your implication that they have a degree of fashion/designer cache, the Lecia name dictates a higher price, simply because.

Just added a Canon 580 EXII to my collection, along with 8x AA Sanyo Eneloops

[lt8480]

Just ordered a new Panasonic LX3 to replace my old digital camera ready for a trip.

Also ordered:

Gordy Camera Strap - 58inch sling With split-ring lug mount connector & integral bumper and neck pad (dark brown leather and green wrapping to all)
JJC ALC-3 lens cap (no fiddling with lens caps)
16gb Bytestor class 6 SHDC card (cheap and not let me down in the past 5 years)
Addtional Panosonic battery (Just in case)
and
DMW-CLX3 Black Original Leather Case (in the end this was my guilty pleasure)

Only bit of existing kit to keep will be my Manfrotto 785B tripod which replaced a broken tripod a year or so ago.

Don't think there is anything else I need.
