By no report I've read does the M(240) perform at 7 stops higher ISO than the M9 (or even the M8). The M9 seems to perform fairly well at ISO 1600 If you have a link to such a report with images demonstrating the M's performance at ISO 204,800 matching the quality of an M9 shot at 1600 do point me to it. The reports I've seen suggest an improvement of 1 to 1.5 stops About the same improvement found when moving from M8 to M9. Now the Monochrom is a different beast shows significant high ISO performance by all reports.
