Hobbyist fed up with bulky DSLR
Hobbyist fed up with bulky DSLR
I'm a hobbyist that loves a good camera. I currently own a Canon 1DMII, 24-70 2.8, 70-200 2.8 and a 50 1.4. I plan to sell all of it and my Martin guitar (which I hardly ever play), to fund an M8 + 28 2.8 lens. I look forward to a more pleasant photophraphy experience with a camera I can actually take with my and my family on a typical weekend outing. My current Canon system use to go everywhere with me, but I have quickly grown tired of hauling it around, especially on plane trips, and see the M8 as the perfect system for someone like me. I also look forward to not feeling like a freak show when I pull out the massive Canon!
Do I still sound sane?

Welcome rolumba!
Yes you sound as sane as most of us here (which may not be very sane by normal standards). The RF world is good for guys like you. But be prepared for a learning curve after SLR shooting! Btw. first name please!

My first name is Rob. I'm in San Jose, CA. I think I'm ready to call Keeble and Schuchat at put down a deposit! Thank you all for your excellent conversations. Although I haven't put any feedback, I've been reading these M8 threads intensively the past week, plus visiting every site mentioned, including a subscription to Sean Reid's reviews.
