"Compared to the Leica SL and the M10, the A9 has better high ISO, faster electronic shutter speed, in-body 5 axis stabilization, and shoots 20 frames per second. Moreover, it has an in-body EVF, so you don't need to fiddle with an external EVF like the M10. And best of all, it can be adapted to autofocus M-mount lenses. To forego all these advantages, the rendering had better be noticeably better on the Leica SL and M10. But clearly it isn't, as demonstrated by this comparison.
If you look close enough or if you know what to look for, I am sure you can make a case that Leica is better. But is it really? Is it really that much better?
Admittedly, this will not sit well with Leica enthusiasts. I myself am one. However, I am also pragmatic. Perhaps Leica values rendering over functionality. But from what I can see, Leica's rendering just isn't good enough to justify hamstrung functionality and performance with the Leica SL and its M-mount rangefinders."
