[Leica] Image difference between M and "new" M9

[john at mcmaster.co.nz (John McMaster)]

Little difference other than you can use a magnified LV for focussing a 
Noctilux ;-) I can point you in the direction of shots taken with f1.0 
Noctilux, 75mm Summilux and 90mm Summicron II (the latter two will feature 
in this week PAW)

The M files can be pushed/pulled far more than M9 ones if needed as well as 
better high ASA, it feels nicer to use and allows the (slow) use of SLR 
lenses. If you can afford it, and find one for sale, the M is preferable to 
the M9 although the M9 still produces stunning results....
