Let me see if I can get a positive M8 thread going.
These are shot with the 90 Apo 2.0 at 640 ISO wide open. I call them fuzzygraphs because of the slow shutter speed and my lack of focusing properly. Shot with Auto WB.
This one I call "Defeat"
I call this one "Oh really?"

Jorge,
Sorry for the techie question but are these the colors straight from AWB? There's some strong yellow going on in the guy in the second pic (face and hands).

Note that Jorge posted those images in Adobe color space, so unless you're viewing them with color-managed software, you're not seeing the colors true. They look somewhat flat in Internet Explorer 6 or Firefox 1.0.7 (Windows, color managed). They are more colorful in Picture Window Pro, which is a color managed application. (Jorge: consider "save for web", at least in Photoshop.)
Consider also that light is bouncing off his very yellow jacket lapels onto his face, which isn't pasty pink-white in the first place.
Also, normal indoor light usually isn't uniform in color temperature from one place to the other.

DON#t mean to be crude Jorge, but every decent digicam can do this.... and more our M8 are not able to produce....

On the alert
Jorge, I know this isn't a request show, but what I'd really like to see is some shots a f8 in good light at a low iso. The lighting in municipal buildings will make any camera look a bit average. I'd like to see more shots with everything in the camera's favour so we can all really see what it can do.

Are you so sure? In the first picture the girl on the left is sharp and defined better than digicam shots I have seen.
I guess we need someone toput the M8 in perspective; a 100% crop from say a canon 1sdmmarkII (with an "R" lens) , M8 (say same M formula as the R with canon) and a digicam (saya digilux 2 set at same FL
use leica glass in all
might be interesting.
Here is one copy of it saved for web
