Markus,
A little question about your experience with the M9. Do you find that its rather small profile helps in making people easier with you taking pictures?
I found when moving from DSLR to m43 that I could certainly capture more "life" scenes than ever before but every now and then I feel like holding the camera at arms length still gives too much presence to the photographer. And that the last step would be to have a very small camera held at eye level. Which sadly I can't with my E-P1.
Would you agree about that last bit? eye level + compact body ?
thanks in advance,
Sylvain

Well, not really a review, but more of an experience report:

Well written, IMO. Mostly matches my experiences ... except I don't really use it with UWA lenses and that unlike him I'd really love to have a better LCD.
Apart from that, also definitely in love with this camera ... and street photography, too <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Not that I think I'm good at it. Far from it. But it's fun for sure.
