I am not surprised the M10 is unobtainable, it does not exist ;-) The size 
of the sensor does matter, either for shallow DoF or as Geoff (and his 
wallet) will soon find out if you go for larger than FF sensors.....

-----Original Message-----

Who cares about full frame? The only reason I want an M9 or M10 (the latter 
is unattainable, but the former is not) is that I like the ergonomics of the 
Leica better, and of course the lenses, and most of all, I want better high 
ISO performance than what the M8 gives me. The size of the sensor is utterly 
irrelevant. I was shooting in a dark Munich bar last night with my Fuji X. 
My M8 would have been totally useless in that place.

Cheers,
Nathan
