Can any other M9 owners comment on this mentioned shutter lag or is there a
technical source to quantify this?
I have no means of measuring anything and can only comment that I have never
noticed any discernible lag at all with my M9 nor my M8.
A couple of people elsewhere have mentioned this but there has been some
confusion whether they were referring to travel/feel of the shutter release
action, or writing speed to buffer perhaps.
Knowing Marty I am sure that he has meant shutter lag precisely .

Cheers
