I sold my M9-P before getting the M10. The six pictures below are literally a farewell to the M9 in that I only finished processing them last week, three months after I sold the camera. When I got my M10 in late-March, the first thing I wanted to see whether I could get M9-type color with the new camera — that is to say images that looked more like slide film than color negative film. In the next post you can see some recent pictures taken with the M10.

Oh those colors from the M9-P are magical. And what are your thoughts M9-P vs M10. From a Color perspective? We all know M10 is a far more superior camera than M9 series.

I agree that M9 colors are indeed often magical and have a certain umami that may be slightly harder to tease out the M10. In terms of processing, I find that M10 files are even more malleable than M9 files; that M9 files require less contrast adjustment because M10 files, like well-exposed B&W film negatives, start off flatter owing the their higher dynamic range; but that the WB of the M10 is generally better, particularly at night and in highly mixed lighting. That's about all I can say at this stage, as I haven't had enough time with shooting the M10 to say more.

After a lot of research in the second hand market I finally got my Leica M9.
These are the very first pictures with it testing green colour.

I really like that last photo. Something about it.
Also the second last photo too!

Is it the new Summaron or the old one? I kinda want the new Summaron but in black for the M-D. To treat it like the most expensive point and shoot

Adam - Thanks. It's the new Summaron 28. When I first read about it I thought it was absurd to buy a lens with a maximum aperture of f/5.6. But then I saw some picture taken with it, especially Ian Watts' landscapes using Portra 400. Then, once I had the M10 with its fantastic ISO 3200. I changed my mind and bought it. I haven't regretted it because I like it's rendition.

BTW, I duplicated the M9 and M10 posts above on RFF, where I'm being taken to task for "over-processing and excessive saturation." They especially hate the first M9 photo of the two women talking in an art gallery, which I rather like. Actually, that picture was taken at night under mixed lighting, shooting from a dark area of the room — the paintings were brightly lit by (halogen?) spot lights and there were some warmer lamps in the room; the light wall between the two women was, and is, grey. The color cast on the subjects' faces comes from the warmer light in the dark area in which they were standing.

I say do what you like.. Honestly, it's good to get constructive feedback if you're looking for it. But we all have different views on what we like/don't like. If you're happy with the image no need to defend.

I've shot in tons of mixed lighting conditions.. there are always compromises that have to be made in those situations or else you could just shoot black and white, and sometimes you don't want to.

Now you have me wanting the Summaron, but I don't want a silver lens

Adam - My feeling is that is that the Summaron looks better in silver — until I see a black one...And it comes with a black hood.

Did you buy a silver or black M10?
I dabble with silver Ms and M lenses but I never keep them.

I'm on the verge of breaking and getting a black M10, I'm getting tired of EVF cameras.

Adam - Yeah, I am not fond of EVFs. I bought a black M10, but my silver habit is fed by the beautiful M3 that I bought last December from a Japanese eBay store — best Leica-M viewfinder ever. Also, I don't really like the red Leica badge on a silver M10. Most likely I'll put black electrical tape over the red badge on my black M10, as I have done with the black M6, but I haven't done it yet...

I'd love to see your work with the M10 and the glorious ISO 3200 files.

Incidentally, I like the look and, especially the feel of the chrome-black M10 much more the the black paint finish of the M9-P that I sold: particularly in the tropics, where the high-gloss black paint feels clammy.
