It seems to me that part of what I paid for, as with other cameras, was RAW processing software, in Leica's case, Lightroom. I have an unused certificate sitting on my desk. My plan has always been to use it to get LR3, then give my LR2 license to my son. If I did not have the certificate I would have already bought the upgrade and my son would be missing out. I think I am one of several on this list feeling the same way. It does not mean I could not afford my M9. cheers, Frank D On 15 Jun, 2010, at 05:12, Jayanand Govindaraj wrote: > Geoff, > I am in the financial sector, I deal with peoples savings on a day to > day basis and if my clients were worried about spending US$99, I would > advocate against them buying an M9 in the first place, or selling the > M9 they cannot afford to own, not worry about an upgrade that it is > not even essential.
