what appears to be genuine pictures of the FF M9 and the new Leica X1 have leaked.

the X1 seems to be Leica's version of the Panasonic GF1, probably at twice the price...

The M9 shot is phony. Look at the top plate on the left and then on the right. Why would the one on the right be slanted? More drivel for the masses.

New Leicas announced 9/9/9 anyway, pointless to speculate so close to the announcement.

To speculate anyway, I say the "photos" are faked.

from dpreview just ten minutes ago. Max ISO 2500 as it seems. Have a quick glance before they take it down...

Link asks for a password?

The fact that it doesn't 404 is promising.

The picture they posted was a phony. I stand by my statement, I didn't say an M9 didn't exist.

Looks like the same camera as the pictures shown today to me.
