This is my main lens on the M8. I think it's a great lens for its size and price, but I'm going to complement it with either another, slower 35 or an 28. The reason is not the wide-open performance, which I think is certainly acceptable if not good. The little Voigtländer exhibits pretty strong distortion and it has focus shift between f/2 and f/4 or so. To some people these issues can be deal breakers. I can work around the focus shift, but I don't like the distortion.
So easily and elegantly taken care of in Lightroom (or other), matter of fact LR3 has become an indispensable tool for me with regards to the M8.
I will concur on the 1.4, great lens for the money and it's my main (used to be on the M6) lens as well.
