I was surprised that the R9 handled the extreme range better than the M9. I just converted them in LR3 with custom profile for the M9 but I haven't profiled the R9 yet so that's just whatever LR used. I tried several ways of adding extra dynamic range for the M9 but none of them looked any better than the original. I'll keep playing with them, though. I much prefer the R9 version so far.
