1. If I had the extra cash, I’d buy one. Sadly, I can’t afford the Pentax I’d like K5 either. Why are quality cameras so expensive these days? My Honeywell Pentax was only $150 (brand new) and that came with an f2 50mm lens. hmmmmmmmmmm,

2. uhmm its time to start saving, to buy M9 Leica “someday” ughhh i want it so badly >.< or sell my nikon D3s + several lens ^ ^ wkwkwkw

3. Ah, nice piece of kit, though I think they should have Carl Lagerfeld design the power and USB cables and pouches for the next edition. Hey, these pouches came with my GF1 as well (for the kitt lens) and frankly I have no idea were i’ve left them. The double manual is a nice addition though for the same reason. A manual I can put on my bookshelf would be nice with every piece of kit I bought. My Fuji GX680 which I bought came with a manual…….whoops that’s several carefull owners for you.

4. My first thought was, the camera was Seal’s, and the person unboxing it was Seal’s assistant.

   • I hear that Seal has reserved 2 sets with the serial numbers 007 and 500 respectively…

5. Always fun to hear a bored millionaire breathing… unboxing my X1 was a lot more spectacular actually…

6. Very nice 😀

   But the X1’s box is much better!

7. After going back and looking at the Titanium version, I really want the strap and shoulder holster. Steve, is there any indication that Leica will be offering those as accessories for the “regular” M9s?

   • You can basically get that already, there were third party solutions out before it was adopted for the leica m9 titanium.

     Street shooter – not the same as the shoulder holster.. but it could be modified, if nobody else has made one. http://www.showplace.com.au/Streetshooter.html

8. I’m so jealous! I see he got the cufflinks out for the special occasion lol! He appears very calm but then the excitement takes over, my heart stopped when the box fell over.
   One day the M9 will be mine…wish

9. You’d think a guy with that kinda cash could at least buy a decent tie. He also needs a video camera with faster autofocus 😉

10. The video title should be: Darth Vader unboxing M9 Titanium

    • Hahahaha good one! He has a bad case of block nose ;p

11. Judging by the labored breathing from the unboxing, i’m not sure how long he’ll enjoy it..

    Then again, I’d be panting.

    • LOL…that’s the exact thought I had. I was thinking he needed to see a cardiologist, but then again, it could have just been excitement.

12. I want one but can’t find one! 🙁

13. Un-boxing videos were designed for people selling Canon L lenses who can’t remember which way round it all goes

14. Its funny how the same video gets two completely different sets of comments. This video was pissed on by readers at Leica Rumors, where here, people are ok with the whole “unboxing” concept.

    • Personally, I’m glad he posted it. Most people either can’t afford it or justify it.. so why not get to step in the shoes.

      Ahh.. the green monster.

15. Leica rumors posted a follow-up video by the same guy, more camera loveliness!

16. Part II of this video:

17. Dear Steve, do not hurt my heart, please!

18. man, gotta love that glorified hard cover users manual! haha

19. Haha… this is camera porn at it’s best

20. I love the way the battery and charger and stuff come in separate bags. very classy. as it should be 🙂
    sorry for the double post.

21. Sweet, Sweet Camera. 🙂

22. OK, I want one but still don’t have the money.

    • No wedding ring – that explains it..

      :@)
