The LEICA M9 Rangefinder Camera a new benchmark in digital photography
As the world's most compact full-format digital camera system, the Leica M9 sets a new benchmark for modern M photography. It boasts outstanding performance and consummate technical prowess - attributes that it shares with Yaniel Merino, the promising up-and-coming boxer from Cuba. The Leica M9 followed him for a day in his home city of Havana, where he trains under fairly basic conditions and dreams of winning the Olympics. His dream has been captured authentically and vibrantly by the M9.
Discrete, compact and precise, the Leica M9 is as superb a performer as Yaniel himself and like him, also claims to be among the best in the world.

The history of 35-mm photography began almost 100 years ago with the legendary Ur-Leica. Today, it is the Leica M9, a landmark camera that carries the proud heritage of Leica M cameras into the digital age. The Leica M9 is the world's first digital system camera of its size to be built with a full-frame sensor - a CCD sensor developed specifically for the Leica M9 - that is capable of perfectly capturing the full 35-mm format (24 × 36 mm) in ultra-high resolution. The new M9 - in the familiar, classic, and timeless M design, represents the essence of its predecessors based on the consummate technology of our time. It is the perfect contemporary tool for those who set the highest standards in image quality and are committed to creating images that endure.
Full-Frame 24 x 36 mm capture without any compromises
The combination of an extremely high-resolution sensor, high performance M lenses and careful processing of the digital picture data provides the best picture results under all conditions. The proprietry CCD sensor in the Leica M9 with18 Million Pixels, allows the utilisation of the full 35 mm format. The sensor of the M9 uses a newly developed cover glass to eliminate infrared light contamination and allows the use of existing Leica M lenses without loss of image quality.
The use of external UV/IR filters is not required.
