Are you in the same boat as me, waiting for a Leica M9? Here are some things to check out while you wait.
If you havn’t ordered your Leica M9 yet you can support this site by ordering your Leica M9 camera through Amazon.
Dpreview has a hands on preview of the Leica M9 with sample pictures. No offense to Dpreview but I thought the images were not representative of the Leica M9’s awesome capabilities. I have seen much better pictures from other Leica M9 shooters.
Luminous-landscape.com has an Leica M9 article that is worth checking out.
David Farkas photography blog has a M9 article posted. There are some good pictures that are starting to represent the capabilities of this unique camera there.
Nikonweb has an article on the Leica M9. Some of the pictures really impress me with the fine micro contrast detail.
The Overgaard site has a nice review of the Leica M9 camera.
Steve Huff has posted a great article on which lenses to choose for the Leica M9 and M8 cameras.
Don’t forget to check out pictures taken with the M9 on Flickr!
Update! – BH Photo is now taking pre-orders for the black and silver Leica M9 cameras!
In the interim I’ll keep stalking Amazon and hope that I get the camera this year. If not, its no big deal as I have other things I should be doing anyway. If you run across any good links please post them in the comments section! I hope everyone who has ordered a Leica M9 receives their camera soon!

So… get your M9 yet?
Not yet, They, Leica, have not been shipping either the M9 or the S2 due to a shortage of parts. The word on the street is Leica will resume shipping this month. I’m not holding my breath.
