Non Leica 50mm Lens that is like Summicron for the M8 at a reasonable cost.

It's always fascinating to see somebody ask for gummy bears and they are offered Doritos instead.

An excellent copy of the Canon LTM 50mm f/1.4 will cost about US$250. You'll need to buy an M mount adaptor to fit on the M8.

Its a great lens and is very sharp wide open.

Cheers

"...the Zeiss ZM 50mm ƒ/2 is the new winner. It takes pride of place as the best 50mm I know of. I'd have to use it more to be sure, but it looks that way."
