On boxing day, we kicked off our Leica M9 Dream Combo lottery. About a week later, all the tickets were gone. On average, the 1517 ticketholders bought in excess of 13 tickets each.
We’re thrilled to announce that the winner of a Leica M9 and a selection of lenses is Andrew Clayton from Australia! We have spoken with the winner and informed him that he is welcome to visit his favorite Leica dealer and order his dream combo. Needless to say, he was very excited! Let’s hope he submits one of his LeicaShots to us in a not too distant future.
Thanks to all who participated!


Congratulations Andrew! Lucky you!
The rest of you may have a chance to get a M9 if I can make this crazy project fly:

Damned. I wanted it so badly! Now I’m going to have to wait another 5 years at least… :(

Killing a goat is not sufficient I guess. Anyway congratulation to the winner and hope he will enjoy his new toy as much as I would have

Bugger.
When’s the next competition? :)
*exactly* what I was thinking. When is the next lottery?!
Congratulations Andrew and enjoy working out your new camera and lenses!
Congratulations Andrew! i was so sure it was gonna be me :( I’ve now moved on to pray for the D-Lux 4.
BUMMER! :(
Well, at least it goes downunder! Congratulations – use it well, Andrew.
Whatever happened to the other guy who won the M9? Any word from him?
Congratulations Andrew, ans my condolences Jarle.
Bollocks #2!
Time to move on and accept that we will probably never have an M9.
Let’s concentrate on photography not gear, take pictures and prove that we don’t need one.
@Cole: The camera is delivered to him, so I guess he’s out shooting ;) We’ll do a follow up on Bertrand in a little while.
Joputa con suerte…
A disfrutarla.
Lucky guy, can’t imagine how I would feel walking in the Leica store and just being able top pick a couple of things like that :)
Congrats!
Now I’m depressed.
Good on you mate!
fun fact: according to facebook, mr clayton is a school principal! i sure hope he hasn’t scrapped photography classes like most schools in australia. congratulations to him, and @leicashots – again, again!
Congrats mate!!
Excellent. Congratulations and wish you great images with it.
Have fun with it Andrew. Can we know how many tickets Andrew bought?
I had my kit picked out. Maybe next time.
It’s quite hard for me as well :/
Andrew, I can honestly say.. I hate you, you lucky lucky man.
Congrats, Andrew!
Congratulation!!!! Andrew!
Andrew: Look forward to your first images. Congratulations from a loser in America!!
Congrats Andrew! Interesting that neither him or Bertrand Girard never posted a comment to thank Leicashots for the amazing gift WE have given them! To be honest, if blessed with this gift, I the first thing I would do it would be to come here and thank the website and the participants. Anyways… hope they enjoy the camera and gear they got.
Congratulations, mate! :)
