Subject: [Leica] Leica R9???

For those who sent me many suggestions, my R8 is now in Germany.  They said
they would honor the 5 year warranty on my gray market camera.  Shipping was
a bit high, but they said it should be on my way back in 8-10 days.  Not too
bad.

At any rate, there are some deals to be had on R9 demos.  I am tempted  (1
year USA warranty).  Has anyone had or heard of any problems with the R9
like the early R8's?  Since there are no real major changes in the camera I
was wondering if the bugs that were present and worked out in the R8 carry
through to the R9 making it as dependable as the later R8's.

I really should save my bucks for a digital back, however.  Take on an extra
summer job.
