What is the most used/preferred lens on the M8 for you?
I've always been a wide angle shooter (50mm or wider, full frame equivalent), but for some reason, i've been stuck with telephotos with the M8.
75/1.4 and 50/1.4
75 for my walk-abouts and the 50 for out-and-about with friends.
after some thought, i think its the resolution. images are just so sharp with this camera, i'm always blown away at how much close-up fine detail my telephotos are able to pick up, that i haven't been able to put them down for wide angles for the past few weeks.

For me it's my 25 Biogon. Just got the new CV M 25 and plan on putting it through its paces this weekend. It's a couple of stops slower, but half the size of the Biogon. I was looking for something very compact.

28mm is perfect for me with an APSc size sensor. I loved the equiv. 38mm FOV.
Just something about the depth etc I found perfect, which is strange because I love very shallow DOF.
