Why? No offense to Kyle as I am a BIG fan of his photography but when is the
last time you see a ISO 100000 PRINT that you want to hang in your house?

M9 does reasonably clean ISO1600. If they up it to 3200, that will be good
enough for most people.

What the heck am I saying? The M9 is more than good enough for just about
anybody :-)
