It's turning into quite a morning for cameras, with the news that Leica's M9 digital range finder has gone up for preorder on Amazon.  $6,995 gets you the 18-megapixel full-frame M-mount range finder – body only, mind – which Leica announced back in September 2009.

Interestingly, according to Amazon's "Frequently Bought Together" panel, customers often buy the steel gray M9 with the black version of the camera, for a bargain $13,990.  Thanks for the the suggestion, Amazon!
