It took me about one year to get used to my M-9 using all my Leitz/Leica M-lenses. I've got about 15 of them I even put it on all known Leitz M reproduction systhems, including Focaslide and Visoflex I & III etc I have. Results at ISO 160 with the M-9 are unbelievable compared to the good old Kodachrome and you can check them within minutes. I didn't say they are better or even as good, wich asks for verry deep tests. At first look on a screen they are just unbelievable. On paper it's still many times better If the first reactions I saw about the new M 240 are correct, its a giant step (remember the first moon landing) into the future for photography.
