Brand New M8!

these "woohoo, got my M8"-posts just keep turning my head slowly :eek: one day I fell too, am afraid.

right now I could not justify it with any rational explanation. hope I'm able play time and wait when
more used ones are showing up from net auctions...

PS Guys: In case anyone was wondering...the M8 is a blast =D

It puts a smile on my dial every time I use it ... it's a unique experience and it is a shame that it's out of the price range of a lot of people. I think some like the fact that it's price tag makes it somewhat exclusive ... I don't see it that way and wish Leica could sell it for a fair bit less than the $7000.00 Australian I had to pay!

In reality I don't think there will ever be cheap second hand units available ... they will come up but I suspect that this is a camera that people will hang on to!

It's so nice that it has finally become a camera we can appreciate without all the negative hype that was going on a while ago! :cool:

I spent all night out on the town shooting, and I can't remember the last time i've had that much fun.
There will always be a special place in my heart for my film, meterless M, but it's goign to be pretty lonely for a good while.

What lenses are you shooting with the M8?

Right now I'm shooting with a Summicron 50 and I've been borrowing a 35 skopar, Im trying a bunch of 35's to find one that works best for me, I really like the skopar though.
