The Luminous Landscape, a website most reputed for their coverage of landscape photography and medium format topics, have just published another review of the Leica M9, yet again written by a landscape photographer.

Today, it’s Bill Caulfeild-Browne, treasurer of the Nature Conservancy of Canada, who writes about his experience with this state-of-the-art digital rangefinder camera, some twenty years after his last engage with Leica gear (he used to own an R4 and M6 back in the eighties).

It’s especially interesting to see the M9 valued by so many landscape photographers, who you’d expect to be mostly Medium Format users. So is Bill, who is working with Phase One backs since his switch to digital. The M9 is his companion whenever he desires to go light, yet does not want to (or can not) do without top-notch image quality.
