SO, you've got brand new M8 body, and , believe it or not, you've got the cash for one and only one lens.

What is it?

Easy enough for me - my collapsible Summicron & bank the coins...

;)

Well, alright, if it has to be a new lens then either the ZI 35/2 Biogon or the ZI 50/1.5 Sonnar.

Yeah the Noctilux....

but it bit more practical would be the 35mm summicron f2

or

CV ... 35mm Nokton f1.2 or ultron f1.7 ... any of those would suit the M8
 
I myself, after swearing I would not buy another reduced frame camera findmyslef trying to save up for a 35 asph lux, or at least the cron
 
I'd get the new Elmarit 28mm f/2.8 because then I'd have three bodies (M8, MP, M6TTL) and three lenses (28mm, 35mm ASPH f/2, and 50mm f/2 DR). This is a bad exercise because now I'm thinking maybe an M8 would be nice to have... :mad:

Cheers!
 
I'm in the same boat Peter - M8 on the way - and only enough scratch for one lens (ok, 2 lenses - a ZM 21/2.8 is coming with the M8 - so make that one more lens).

I was leaning toward a 35mm 'cron or 'lux myself, but Jaapv and Daniel may be on to the most 'versatile' choice: a Tri-Elmar 28-35-50.
