The M9 gives the user:
full use of the lens' image circle
a larger image file for larger prints
greater crop choices, while maintaining useable image size and quality.
The M9 has nothing to do with the aesthetic quality or content of an
image.
While one can easily find huge quantities of robotic redundancy and
mediocrity in "stock image libraries."
You can also find superb photography within the "best stock image
libraries."
Over generalization serves little purpose.
