interesting - looks like the high light in the first one messed up the auto WB in the M8, where as the RD-1 was fine (but didn't have to deal with the high contrast/highlight)...
the M8 had to deal with more difficult mixed lighting so it's not surprising that the auto everything wasn't up to the task...
would have been interesting if you took the same image with each, wonder if the RD-1 would handle the mixed/high contrast lighting differently/better?
apples to oranges in these images...
