Leica has announced a new variant of the M9 compact, the M9-P.
The new model is technologically identical to the M9 but gets a new scratch-resistant LCD screen, new leather grip and a low-key aesthetic makeover. The red dot and M9 logos are gone from the front of the camera and the top deck is now engraved in the older script-form of the Leica brand.
The M9-P will be sold alongside the M9, and will be available in two different finishes: black or silver chrome. It is expected to retail for $9599.
