Nej, det är lätt...It\'s easy, as long as it\'s the M9
When I was shooting with the Ricoh GXR M-Module, I found I didn\'t at all like focus peaking at all. Also its color rendition was only to my liking when I used Raw Photo Processor (RPP) as raw developer, but I had to work tediously on each photo that I cared about. As I\'ve written elsewhere, the M9 color rendition is unique. As I\'ve written several times on other forums, what pushed me over the fence to decide on the M9-P (besides the great price I was able to get in February 2013) was a statement by Charles Peterson, a Seattle photographer who had showed me his personal color work that I found to be outstanding: he wrote that the he felt that the color rendition of the M9 was more like that of color slide film while that of CMOS-sensor cameras was more like that of color negative film — and that is also what I saw in his personal color work. He also wrote the following, which I think is spot-on: I do think that the higher ISO\'s on the M9 are vastly underrated, and in general much prefer the image quality of the M9 to the M240. The M9 (and Monochrom by de facto) IMO are truly two of the most unique digital cameras out there when it comes to the quality of the image. Not the \"best\" on paper but they have a look, an \"umami\" as the Japanese might say, that no other 35mm digital camera, comes close to.
Of course all this, having to do with color rendition, is matter of taste.
