Funny. As I said, I didn't recommend even the E-M5 as I suspected it would be well over the budget even used. The Leica M9, of course, does not have any zoom lenses so doesn't meet another of Marnie's criteria in the first place. Never mind the price, and the fact that it's somewhat larger/heavier than even the Olympus E-M1. Let's not get into a pointless debate over image quality. I know which system I prefer on that score, and I know which one you prefer. Let's leave it there: either of these systems can make outstanding photographs, and each has its strengths and weaknesses.
