Leica M9 Landscape Photography Detailed Analysis
Large Full frame (36 x 24 mm) sensor
Large sensor in Leica M9 ensures a good low light image quality compared to smaller sensors, and it also provides higher pixel quality compared to smaller sensors.
Very High Resolution Sensor: 18.0MP
Leica M9's 18.0MP sensor is perfect for landscape photography. It will capture a lot of fine details and let you print them larger.
