  I am actually thinking of going the other way. I need to hold a Zf to see how it feels, but I am pretty set on switching. My main thing is that I hate shooting the 50mm (my favorite lens) with the rangefinder. Between the crop lines and tnot being able to use the whole space of the view finder to see what I am shooting, it makes it for a less pleasing experience in my opinion, compared to a EVF. Camera built, color science and so on are amazing in the Leica. I just wish they put a EVF/Hybrid in it. Full disclosure, even in film, I always found that shooting a regular reflex is more pleasant than a rangefinder.

  Guys, CCD sensors won't do any magic to your images. It's the color algorithms in your cameras that make the difference, not the CCD or CMOS sensor. If you want to compare the two, you have to do it in the same brand and same time period. Another guy here did it, two similar Olympus cameras produced pretty much the same result and they had different sensor technology. It's all in the color profile

  Had them, used them and passed them on. after 22 years of shooting digital and over 50 years of film photograohy, I can tell you in all honesty that there is no ' magic ' in CCD. You can easily make an M240 or M10 look like an M9, but you will never be able to make an M9 replicate what an M10 does. No CCD will ever be able to reproduce a film look. You want film, then shoot film. M9 was a decent camera in its time, let it rest in peace. Enjoy your M9.

  +1 to CCD not emulating film. It doesn't, at all, and never has. I don't understand where that comes from. A film scanner using a CCD sensor doesn't actually create the film look as implied in this video; the film creates the film look lol. For film look, shoot film. For something else which is also beautiful and worthwhile, shoot a good digital camera. They aren't meant to be similar.

  @@SourPlanet I think, folks mistake the more saturated and higher contrast files produced by a camera using a CCD as being film like. Which film I wouldn't know, TBH. They talk about Kodachrome, while I bet that 95% of all those going on about it have never seen a Kodachrome slide. In any case anyone could make a CMOS file look like a CCD in post. That M8 & M9 not having an AA filter helps with apparent sharpness ( this is a good thing IMHO ) not withsatnding. If you asked me whether I'd pay £2000.00+ for an M9, the answer is no. These have had their time, and I am sure they are still doing good work in the hands of a lot of competent photographer, but to make them out to be some sort of forgotten magic camera is wrong.

  It's a great camera. My only camera now after years of many different ones. I am not sure it's best for beginners though. I would suggest a camera with aperture priority to ease them in more or where the settings are visible in the viewfinder. It's a professional camera too and for a beginner you can get, for example, an OM20 or M40 and they are cheaper and still use the same glass.

  Very nice review. I have the same model of the Summicron 50mm and have been happily shooting it for 4 years now. I have also owned the Planar 50/2 and a heap of other 50's from Zeiss and Voigtlander, they were all very nice but I always came back to the Cron as my preferred choice. I'm just over halfway through a personal project with this lens, shooting 50 rolls of Tri-x and making 50 prints with my 50mm over a fifty week period. It's amazing how often a 50mm lens is all I need to make the pictures I want. So I think despite the price many people could buy one Leica body and this lens and spend years getting enjoyment from the combination.
