After shooting with all different lenses. I have come to the conclusion that the 24 Elmarit Asph is probably the best lens for the M8. This lens is sharp and contrasty just making the images jump out at you.

I shot this one today. Stupid me, I was framing with the external viewfinder thinking I had the 21 on instead of the 24. They look identical. Well, I soon learned after a few shots.

But look at these rich colors and sharpness.

nice shot! I think I know that boat. That's the one that takes people on tours and they pretend shoot the other boat right? They also have sailors on it as a training sailing crew.
 
I used my 24mm on an M7 for about a year and now have a CV R4A for it. This is an amazing lens, I love the FOV and the image quality. It takes up a bit more than 20% of the VF in an R4 but is worth it as the above photo testifies.
