hmmm do we have it in nigeria here?

The Nigerian security forces, led by the military, embarked on a chilling campaign of extrajudicial executions and violence resulting in the deaths of at least 150 peaceful pro-Biafra protesters in the south east of the country, according to an investigation by Amnesty International published today.

Analysis of 87 videos, 122 photographs and 146 eye witness testimonies relating to demonstrations and other gatherings between August 2015 and August 2016 consistently shows that the military fired live ammunition with little or no warning to disperse crowds. It also finds evidence of mass extrajudicial executions by security forces, including at least 60 people shot dead in the space of two days in connection with events to mark Biafra Remembrance Day.

“This deadly repression of pro-Biafra activists is further stoking tensions in the south east of Nigeria. This reckless and trigger-happy approach to crowd control has caused at least 150 deaths and we fear the actual total might be far higher,” said Makmid Kamara, Interim Director of Amnesty International Nigeria.

“The Nigerian government’s decision to send in the military to respond to pro-Biafra events seems to be in large part to blame for this excessive bloodshed. The authorities must immediately launch an impartial investigation and bring the perpetrators to book.”

This reckless and trigger-happy approach to crowd control has caused at least 150 deaths and we fear the actual total might be far higher Makmid Kamara, Amnesty International Nigeria's Interim Director

Since August 2015, there has been a series of protests, marches and gatherings by members and supporters of IPOB (Indigenous People of Biafra) who have been seeking the creation of a Biafran state. Tensions increased further following the arrest of IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu on 14 October 2015. He remains in detention.
Extrajudicial executions

By far the largest number of pro-Biafra activists were killed on Biafra Remembrance Day on 30 May 2016 when an estimated 1,000 IPOB members and supporters gathered for a rally in Onitsha, Anambra State. The night before the rally, the security forces raided homes and a church where IPOB members were sleeping.

On Remembrance Day itself, the security forces shot people in several locations. Amnesty International has not been able to verify the exact number of extrajudicial executions, but estimates that at least 60 people were killed and 70 injured in these two days. The real number is likely to be higher.

Ngozi (not her real name), a 28-year-old mother of one, told Amnesty International that her husband left in the morning to go to work but called her shortly afterwards to say that the military had shot him in his abdomen. He said he was in a military vehicle with six others, four of whom were already dead. She told Amnesty International: “he started whispering and said they just stopped [the vehicle]. He was scared they would kill the remaining three of them that were alive... He paused and told me they were coming closer. I heard gunshots and I did not hear a word from him after that.”

The next day Ngozi searched for her husband and finally found his body in a nearby mortuary. The mortuary attendants told her that the military had brought him and six others. She saw three gunshot wounds: one in his abdomen and two in his chest, which confirmed her fear that the military had executed him.

Amnesty International has also reviewed videos of a peaceful gathering of IPOB members and supporters at Aba National High School on 9 February 2016. The Nigerian military surrounded the group and then fired live ammunition at them without any prior warning.

According to eyewitnesses and local human rights activists, many of the protesters at Aba were rounded up and taken away by the military. On 13 February 13 corpses, including those of men known to have been taken by the military, were discovered in a pit near the Aba highway.
“It is chilling to see how these soldiers gunned down peaceful IPOB members.

In many of the incidents detailed in the report, including the Aba High School protest, the military applied tactics designed to kill and neutralize an enemy, rather than to ensure public order at a peaceful event.

All IPOB gatherings documented by Amnesty International were largely peaceful. In those cases where there were pockets of violence, it was mostly in reaction to shooting by the security forces. Eyewitnesses told Amnesty International that some protesters threw stones, burned tyres and in one incident shot at the police. Regardless, these acts of violence and disorder did not justify the level of force used against the whole assembly.

Amnesty International’s research also shows a disturbing pattern of hundreds of arbitrary arrests and ill-treatment by soldiers during and after IPOB events, including arrests of wounded victims in hospital, and torture and other ill-treatment of detainees.

Vincent Ogbodo (not his real name), a 26-year-old trader, said he was shot on Remembrance Day in Nkpor and hid in a gutter. When soldiers found him they poured acid on him. He told Amnesty International:

“I covered my face. I would have been blind by now. He poured acid on my hands. My hands and body started burning. The flesh was burning… They dragged me out of the gutter. They said I’ll die slowly.”

I covered my face. I would have been blind by now. He poured acid on my hands. My hands and body started burning. The flesh was burning… They dragged me out of the gutter. They said I’ll die slowly

A man who was detained in Onitsha Barracks after the Remembrance Day shooting on 30 May 2016 told Amnesty International: “Those in the guard room [detention] were flogged every morning. The soldiers tagged it ‘Morning Tea’.”
No action by authorities to ensure accountability
Despite this overwhelming evidence that the Nigerian security forces committed gross human rights violations including extrajudicial executions and torture, no investigations have been carried out by the authorities.

A similar pattern of lack of accountability for gross violations by the military has been documented in other parts of Nigeria including the north east in the context of operations against Boko Haram.

“Amnesty International has repeatedly called on the government of Nigeria to initiate independent investigations into evidence of crimes under international law, and President Buhari has repeatedly promised that Amnesty International’s reports would be looked into. However, no concrete steps have been taken,” said Makmid Kamara.

In the very rare cases where an investigation is carried out, there is no follow up. As a result of the apparent lack of political will to investigate and prosecute perpetrators of such crimes, the military continues to commit human rights violations and grave crimes with impunity.

In addition to investigations, the Nigerian government must ensure adequate reparations for the victims, including the families. They should end all use of military in policing demonstrations and ensure the police are adequately instructed, trained and equipped to deal with crowd-control situations in line with international law and standards. In particular, firearms must never be used as a tool for crowd control.

[color=#0099ff]I don't like eggs [/color]

why and how old are you?

TheSuperNerd:
@first bolded... A Clone is actually you just genetically-wise but definitely not personality-wise. In cloning, a lot of genes can be added during the reproductive cloning process to give the clone what you want it to have as suited for your purpose. So it's just a "genetic you" but not a "YOU" in the sense of your personality, psychology and experiences.

.............


@second bolded.... Hmmm... Biological immortality huh? That will see you maintaining ALL that makes you "You" in terms of your memories, personality and more without the need for making new memories afresh or worrying that your new body will also age and you'll need another "clone transfer" to start the process yet again all over....

Well, James Cameron's 2009 Avatar movie comes to mind in a way. That's fiction but it tallies with some information I did come across over a year ago.... "INITIATIVE 2045"

This is the brainchild of a Russian billionaire named Istkov who craves "immortality". He's so far put together some of the finest minds in science to make it happen. **Kindly check it out... INITIATIVE 2045**

So to answer your question on how biological immortality can be achieved from science's point of view, I will say it is by science coming up with a way to have our memories and personality uploaded/transferred into a NON-BIOLOGICAL CARRIER/BODY... More like an "AVATAR" either via Brain Transplant or by brain-computer autonomous interface transfer.

Uploading or transplanting your brain to another brand new "biological carrier" will only delay the inevitable because we'll still have to reach that point again where aging sets in.

BUT AGAIN, ON AGING, IF AGING CAN BE REVERSED THEN TRANSFER TO A BIOLOGICAL CARRIER MIGHT JUST WORK "PERMANENTLY". Research on telomeres/Telomerase and its connection to the anti-aging process as seen in the works of Elizabeth Blackburn and Carol Greider (Nobel laureates in 2009) holds some fine promise but it's still a long way to unravelling all the mystery thus the way for now will be to focus on a non-biological carrier that will hold our memories and personality just the way we do so in our biological forms. Yep... I'm talking super advanced hi-tech android life forms... Loolll

...............

@third bolded..... lolll... You've already outlined the answer here yourself. You're simply saying, "Heck! There's no need man... This is just delaying the inevitability of aging and decline."

I trust my reply in no.2 have also addressed to a certain extent why this "cryonics way" or even cloning wont be the best for you....


..................

@Fourth bolded.... aging process of the brain... I already talked about Telomeres and Telomerase just briefly and their connection to aging/anti-aging in humans.


You age because the telomeres of your chromosomes shorten with age and thus affect all cell activities in your bodies with time including that of your brain.

The enzyme telomerase is what acts to keep the telomeres from shortening rapidly (and even increasing its length) but again telomerase naturally reduces with age. This discovery is so remarkable and it means all we gotta do is to find a way to keep our telomeres from shortening in our chromosomal make-up. And that also means sustaining the secretion of telomerase because the more telomerase, the longer our telomeres get and that will reflect in our gene expression phenotypically as our cells (including that of the brain) will begin acting as if they were many years younger...... Thus killing the aging process for good.

So without further ado... "Can my memories be intact if they can reverse the aging process of the brain?"---»» I boldly say yes Sir... Not only will your memories be intact but your memory power will likely be boosted to function at levels youngsters at their "brain-power peak" also function.

It's all about Telomeres and Telomerase.

....................

@Fifth bolded..... You're so right. Our memories form a major part of our core identity. We are indeed what we have experienced.

The implication of science one day finding a way to have our memories and personality transferred to a more advanced and far healthier "permanently efficient" brain either in a biological or non-biological (advanced) android carrier is not necessarily the "possible fact" that man has the ability (only if found) to be JUST "biologically" immortal BUT RATHER the "possible fact" that man has the ability to be either biologically or non-biologically immortal.

**You never know which one mankind will achieve first. The Biological or non-biological forms of immortality...... AND WHEN WE SPEAK OF IMMORTALITY, we do so in the absence of certain extreme external factors/forces like a nuclear blast for instance. Our forms will most likely not survive that... Looolll**

Why do I keep mentioning non-biological? Because, that looks like the most "concrete" way for man to achieve immortality.


Telomeres research and anti-aging discoveries still on today do have super prospects for man some day living without ever getting old.

BUT I must say the likelihood of this immortality is most likely to be seen in non-biological life forms.... SUPER ADVANCED ANDROID LIFE FORMS... AVATARS-KINDA

Lemme digress to religion a little, In Christianity, we understand that Man will live forever with Jesus Christ in paradise right? And will do so in a "new body". Hmmm.... Now this body will be "perfect" and not "fleshly" (not of human flesh). It speaks of a "higher" kind of life form.....

Now for mankind, that "higher" from a non-religious perspective will most likely be super advanced android/non-biological life forms.

.......................

@Sixth bolded...... Brilliant question! Truth is this is quite tricky but one thing is certain, IT'S STILL "YOU" Yes, it is still "you". There will be subtle alterations here and there in your psychology, little tweaks and improvements in your personality, a much better perspective on how you see things and on what you prioritise and so on and so forth but bottomline IT IS STILL "YOU"

Why? Well, because it's been part of you (your memories and personality albeit hidden/undiscovered) all along and only needed you to have it ressurrected so as to improve your mental outlook and subtly alter some aspects of who you are so that a possibly better and more powerful "YOU" can emerge.

More like maximising your full brain's potentials not initially possible in your "old brain".

...................

@Seventh bolded.... Yep.. I admit. There are risks in "birthing never-seen-before psychological disorders" IF A FEW THINGS GO WRONG in the process.

The minutest miscalculation can be catastrophic hence the need to be certain of detailed steps in realising this BIG DREAM OF SCIENCE.... "Immortality".


So in all, is this worth all the risk? I will use Ben Carson's risk checker evaluation to answer this...

Before you take a risk, especially a big risk, ask yourself these four questions:

- What is the best thing that will happen if I do this?

- What is the worst thing that will happen if I do this?

- What is the best thing that will happen if I do not do this?

And finally,

- What is the worst thing that will happen if I do not do this?


Your personal honest/sincere answers to these questions as a scientist will go a good way in helping to ascertain if a risk is worth your sweat.

So my answer to your "risk" question is dependent on your own evaluation of the four "what's" of risk as seen above. I could say yes, it's worth it. I could say no, it's not worth it.

But it's all about perspective and conviction which is quite personal and cannot be generalised.


So Sir... This is it... I hope I have been able to do some good justice to most (or rather all) of the questions raised.

Thanks for engaging me... I appreciate.

The volkwagen electric car is superb and modest one

The wide-ranging announcement talks about VW's plans around the world with a focus on electrification and connectivity.

The German car giant shifts its focus to clean-energy vehicles after the dieselgate emissions cheating scandal. Brand chief Herbert Diess claims that the automaker aims to sell one million electric cars per year by 2025. This would make it the global market leader in electromobility. Herbert Diess also added that the switch to electric will be funded through new investments and economies of scale, and is a crucial part of the troubled brand's efforts to reinvent itself.


Last Friday Volkswagen announced the biggest revamp in its history, saying that it would cut 30,000 jobs to save 3.7 billion euros ($3.9 billion) a year by 2020, while ramping up investment in future technologies such as electric cars, self-driving cars and digitalisation. Herbert Diess said that the industry will undergo more fundamental change over the next 10 years than ever before. He predicted that "the breakthrough" of electric cars was just four or five years away and would be driven by environmental concerns. He has no doubt that for most customers the electric car will soon be the better alternative.


The shake-up at Volkswagen's core brand comes as the group tries to recover from the biggest crisis in its history after it admitted last year to installing emissions cheating software in some 11 million diesel vehicles worldwide. The so-called defeat devices could detect when a vehicle was undergoing regulatory tests and lowered emissions accordingly to make the cars seem less polluting than they were. The crisis hurt sales and damaged the image of the proud German company, pushing it to its first loss in over two decades last year. Even before dieselgate, the VW brand had been struggling with profitability, weighed down by high costs and low productivity.

Eggs have had a bad reputation in the past. Sadly, a lot of people still believe in this misinformation. You might have too many questions about the benefits of eating eggs.

Are Eggs Good For Me? Do Eggs Cause Heart Disorders? Do Eggs Result In Increase Of Cholesterol? Should I Avoid Consuming Them? Well, the answers depend on who you ask these questions. You will get varied answers to benefits of eating eggs. A lot of traditional doctors would still tell you that eggs hike cholesterol levels and you must be avoiding them. Few claim that only the whites of the eggs must be used since cholesterol is mostly in the yolk. And if you try researching about benefits of eating eggs, few articles might still force upon you the idea that eggs are dangerous and you must avoid its consumption to avoid health problems.

I’ll be honest with you, I once thought that these news spread on all media in order to push drugs by corporations. I only realized about benefits of eating eggs when I saw a naturopath. I learnt eggs are healthy for you and those doctors who tell you it is not, are wrong. When my naturopath told it the first time, I thought he was crazy and I felt how could many doctors be wrong. However, eventually I realized that they were, and they weren’t wrong just about eggs.

Eggs are, in fact, a very healthy food supplement and are packed with very essential vitamins. They have got great health advantages!

Benefits of eating eggs

But Won’t Eggs Raise My Cholesterol?
You might be avoiding eggs since this is one of the prominent reasons that cause fear in you. Fear of gaining more cholesterol. But, various studies have revealed that eggs do not raise the LDL cholesterol. In fact, they lower them. As per recent research, those people who consumed three eggs in a day for over twelve weeks were found to have increased the HDL and decreased the LDL cholesterol. Another prominent study shows that people who consumed four eggs in a week had lesser cholesterol than the people who consumed only one egg in a week.

Eggs are real good, and I will list down the benefits of eating eggs. Read on!

Benefits of Eating Eggs
1. Eggs are Extremely Nutritious
We all know that nutrition in our diet is very much essential. A whole egg has got all the nutrients needed to transform one cell into a chicken baby. One large boiled egg has got.

Vitamin A: 6 percent of RDA.
Vitamin B2: 15 percent of RDA
Vitamin B5: 7 percent of RDA
Vitamin B12: 9 percent of RDA
Selenium: 22 percent of RDA
Phosphorus: 9 percent of RDA
Folate: 5 percent of RDA

Besides, eggs also have adequate amounts of Vitamin D, E, K, B6, Zinc and calcium. Eggs come with about 77 calories, 5 grams of essential fats and protein of about 6 grams. Eggs also have an array of trace nutrients which are vital for health. Truly, eggs are quite the perfect food as they have some amounts of almost all nutrients your body needs. If you manage to find eggs enriched with Omega 3 or pastured eggs, it would be even great since they have higher amounts of Vitamin A and Vitamin E.

2. Eggs Gave High Cholesterol. However, They Do Not Have Negative Affects on Levels of Blood Cholesterol
Yes, it is true that one of the great benefits of eating eggs that they have high cholesterol. Actually, one egg has got about 212 milligrams of cholesterol that is more than half of what is recommended for daily consumption, which is 300 milligrams. But you need to take note that increase of cholesterol in your diet does not necessarily mean that there will be raise in the levels of blood cholesterol.

Liver, in reality, generates hugewuantities of cholesterol each day. When you consume more number of eggs, the liver in turn generates lower amounts of cholesterol. So that will even it out. Every individual has got varied responses towards the benefits of eating eggs.
In 70 percent of the consumers, eggs do not increase the levels of cholesterol.

In the ‘hyper responders’ who constitue the remaining 30 percent, eggs will slightly increase LDL and total cholesterol levels. But, this is quite complex and the changes in approach towards egg consumption might actually prove to be beneficial.

3. Eggs Increase HDL Cholesterol ( Basically Good Cholesterol)
HDL means High Density Lipoprotein. HDL cholesterol is generally known to be the good king of cholesterol. Those who have got increased levels of HDL cholesterol are known to be less prone to the risks of heart disorders, strokes and many other health issues. Consuming eggs is one way you can increase the levels of HDL cholesterol in your body. A study has confirmed that consuming two eggs everyday for about six weeks can increase the levels of HDL cholesterol in your body by 10 percent.

4. Eggs Have Choline Which is an Essential Nutrient Which Most of The People Lack
Have you ever heard of something called Choline? If no, don’t worry since most of the people have no idea that it exists. Choline is indeed a very important substance which is mostly adjoined with the Vitamin B. Dietary researches have revealed that 90 percent of people in Untied States alone are getting lesser quantities of Choline than what is recommended. Eggs are a great source to get Choline. One whole egg has got more than 100 milligrams of Choline. Since we lack this nutrient, isn’t it better to consume eggs?

5. Eggs Vary In Types Of LDL Cholesterol From Little To Large And Dense. This Has Direct Implications On Decreased Risks Of Heart Problems
LDL cholesterol is usually known to be a bad cholesterol. Having larger levels of this cholesterol can directly affect in heart disorders. However, what people do not recognize is that there are sub categories of this cholesterol which is classified with respect to the varied sizes. There are tiny dense LDL cholesterol and there are larger LDL cholesterol. A lot of studies have revealed that people with comparatively smaller and denser LDL particles are more prone to the risks of heart disorders than the people who are having larger LDL cholesterol. Though eggs are known to slightly increase the levels of LDL cholesterol in some consumers, studies have shown that these particles vary from dense, small and large. Isn’t that a good thing?

6. Eggs Have Got Zeaxanthin and Lutein, Which are Antioxidants Having Huge Benefits With Respect to Healthy Eyes
Worsening of the eye sight is one among the results of aging. There are many nutrients which help fight few of the destructive processes which can have a bad effect on our eyes. Zeaxanthin and Lutein are two such prominent nutrients. They are strong oxidants which have the ability to build themselves up in the eye’s retina. Studies have confirmed that eating enough quantities of the mentioned nutrients can potentially decrease the risks of macular degenratjkn and cataracts, two of the highly common eye problems. Egg yolks have huge amounts of Zeaxanthin and Lutein. Eggs are also rich in Vitamin A and this deserves to be mentioned since the deficiency of Vitamin A is the most general reason for blindness among people.

7. In Pastured Eggs or Omega 3 Eggs, They Can Decrease Triglycerides Too
It does not only matter what we are eating, what sorts of foods we ate also matters. In this context, not every type of egg is created equal. The composition of nutrients in the eggs vary based on how the chickens were fed and bred. Eggs we obtain from pastured eggs or from hens which were fed with feeds enriched with Omega 3 are likely to be richer in omega 3 fatty acids. These fatty acids are renown to decrease the levels of triglycerides in the blood, which is a prominet reason for heart disorders. Studies have revealed that consuming eggs that are rich in omega 3 is a great effective method of decreasing the levels of triglycerides in the blood. One prominent study states that five such eggs every week for about three weeks can decrease triglyceride levels by nearly 18 percent.

8. Eggs are Rich in High Quality Protein, Along With Required Amino Acids
Proteins are famous as the building blocks in our body. They are utilized to develop all kinds of molecules and tissues which serve both functional and structural purposes in our bodies. Having adequate amounts of protein in the diet is very much essential, and studies say that the amounts that are currently recommended might be very less. Eggs are a great source for such proteins, with one whole egg having about six grams of protein. Eggs also have all the required amino acids which are in proper ratios. This way, our bodies can be well equipped with these nutrients for complete usage of the protein present in them. Eggs have ample protein and consuming these proteins can aid you with losing weight, enhancing mass of the muscles, decreasing the blood pressure and also optimizing the health of your bones.

9. Eggs Don’t Increase the Risks of Heart Disorders. In Fact, It may Decrease the Risks of Getting a Stroke
Over the past, eggs have taken a lot of criticism. It has been accused of causing heart problems since they have cholesterol in them. A lot of studies in the recent times have researched upon the connection between consuming eggs and risks of heart problems. In a review of seventeen studies on about 263,938 consumers of eggs, there was no connection found between heart disorders and consumption of eggs. But few studies have also claimed that consumption of eggs among people suffering from diabetes has resulted in heart disorders. If eggs are the actual cause for this increased risk is actually unknown. However, such studies have not been able to confirm that eggs were the main cause.

10. Benefits of Eating Eggs That Can Help You Lose Weight
Eggs are highly filling. You feel sumptuous since protein is the most filling macronutrient and eggs have lot of proteins. Eggs stand somewhere in the top of the scale known as Satiety index. This Index is the measure of how the foods are able to generate the feeling of being full among people that can decrease further intake of calories. In a study conducted on Thirty overweight women, consuming eggs rather than bagels for their breakfast helped them feel full which resulted in lesser calorie intakes further. In another prominent study, replacing eggs instead of bagels for breakfast showed considerable weight loss in a period of about 8 weeks.

11. Benefits of Eating Eggs : Boost Nerve and Brain Health
Every egg contains 20 percent of everyday recommendation of intake of the nutrient choline. Choline is very important for phospholipids that are used in every cell membranes. Ample amount of choline is needed for nerve and brain health. Our mind’s health is as important as the physical health, right?

12. Eggs Have Tyrosine and Tryptophan
Tyrosine and tryptophan are two essential amino acids which have excellent antioxidant properties. Besides, Tryptophan us vital since it is converted into serotonin which is basically an enhancer of mood, and is also concerted to melatonin which is at the pineal gland and helps you to get better sleep.

13. Eggs Have Calcium
Each whole egg has about 0 milligrams of calcium. Though it isn’t a significant source of the nutrient, ample intake of eggs could decrease the risks of colon polyups. Calcium also helps to keep the bone healthy.

14. Eggs Decreases Birth Defects
This super food has folate which is a nutrient and studies have revealed that folate can avoid defects of birth if consumed prenetally. Every egg has got about 40 micrograms of folate.

15. Eggs Aid for Healthy Nails and Hair
The eggs have sulfur in it, and also have got vital minerals and additional vitamins that play a major role in promoting healthy nails and hair. As a result, you will get healthy nails and hair growth if you consume eggs!

16. Eggs Decrease Oxidative Stress
Eggs have a very vital macro nutrient known as Selenium that helps in decreasing oxidative stress.

17. Decreased Risks of Prostate Tumors
This super food is an amazing selenium source that has associated itself with avoiding cancer. Specifically in specific tumors that affect the prostate.

18. Enhances Functioning of Immune System
Eggs have got ample amount of iron which aids in supporting your immune system to stay healthy. Besides, they also take care of adequate production of red blood cells.

19. Eggs Decrease Risks Related to Breast Cancer
Recently, a study has revealed that those women who consumed more quantities of choline present abundantly in eggs were 24 percent less prone to the risks of getting affected by breast cancer.

20. Decreases Inflammation
Eggs have choline in them which helps in decreasing inflammation in your body the chronic inflammations have been linked to enhanced risks of Alzheimer’s, osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes and cognitive decline.

21. Good for Development of Foetus
Again, the choline in the eggs is also vital for pregnant women since it is important for correct brain development of foetus and also avoiding defects related to neural tubes.

The M9-P features a minimalist external control layout that gives you access to critical shooting parameters and nothing more. The viewfinder is largely free of electronic data, save for the shutter speed when in Aperture-priority mode, a temporary confirmation of any exposure compensation adjustment and over/under-exposure indicators in manual mode.

The camera's external controls fall nicely in hand. Build quality is exceptional, with a magnesium alloy frame and solid brass top and bottom plates adding welcome stability without feeling unnecessarily heavy. The camera's compact size means it can fit in a small shoulder bag, and its light weight - compared to a full frame DSLR - means that you won't need to to visit a chiropractor after a day spent walking with the camera around your neck. A bright viewfinder allows for quick and accurate focus even in low light. Engraved depth of field markings on the lenses make zone focusing relatively simple.

The M9-P embodies nearly all of the traits that make film-era Leica M models such great analog cameras. Concessions to the needs and conveniences related to digital camera use, however, are few and far between. The user interface design is where we struggle most with the M9-P. Every other 4-way controller we've ever seen includes an 'OK' button at its center. Here there is nothing but what looks to be a placeholder for a button that was going to go there at some point. Instead, you're forced to continually confirm settings with the 'Set' button which is rather inconveniently placed on the opposite side of the camera body. And the awkward process of adjusting ISO, in which you must continue holding the ISO button while using the 4-way controller or dial to navigate the choices, never ceased to be frustrating.

U will notice slight difference when looking at the pic from a smarthphone, especially when u have a 5.5 inch 720p display... the pics will look likely the same. But where u will notice the real difference is when u zoom in , or when u are looking at the pics on a big screen like 40 inch HDTV. Also when u actually print these pictures on a hard copy, u will know never to compare a camera phone to a professional DSLR Camera.

you are right, i think this is the most expensive camera i have come across recently Leica M9-P with a Leica Summicron lens — a camera kit worth over $9000.
