Hello all. I finally made the move to a Leica body. Had a long talk with the boss and she gave me the go ahead to take my game up a notch to FF and a Leica. I posted a unboxing video, that may be a little crass for some, but I enjoyed the excitement of opening my first and probably last Leica kit.

And a couple shots today for my first test drive with my kit:

Fantastic news, Duane! Congratulations.

I think you'll find the 35mm FoV quite natural with the M9 once you get used to it.

Well it is going to take some getting use too. I just don't remember the 28mm on my GXR feeling as wide as the 35mm on this M-E.

Its going to be a fun and challenging ride though!

Well a 28mm on the GXR is equivalent to a 42mm, but I understand what you mean...things are a lot wider on full frame sensors.
