Leica M8 Workshops

[GrahamWelland]

I saw this over on the Leica Users Group forum - Leica & CDi NY are doing a set of one day workshops with the M8 around the US.

Take a look at:

I signed up for the Portland, OR session - hope to maybe some of you there.

Vegas for me- and here's a sample of the Vegas photo ops : )

Sorry for the double post folks - I didn't see that SailorTed had already hit the streets ahead of me! (I was just so excited to see something M8 specific!!)

No worries I'll kill my post and have fun : )

Although offered in corroboration with Leica, the workshops seem to be too broad and sounds more like an introduction into digital photography. The last topic, "Maintenance and Troubleshooting" could be usefull for M8 users. Not sounding negative, I think I would wait for feedback from people that will be taking that in Vegas before I sign up though.

My experience with CDi NY in the past, in particular with their workflow guides for Digilux 2 and Kodak 645M digital back suggests that this will be targeted at getting the most from shooting with the M8 and associated digital workflow. If you're looking for a general rangefinder workshop then this probably isn't it. THe books that CDi pulled together for those other cameras were excellent and went way beyond the product manuals.
