Digital Leica M8 / M8.2 / M9 / M-E /Mono / M10 aka "M" Discussions about the Leica M8 /M 8.2 / M9 / M9-P/ M-E / M Monochrom / M10 aka "M": Leica digital M mount rangefinder cameras. Naming the new digital M the "Leica M" is VERY unfortunate as it will only confuse newbies with other Leica M cameras of the the past. Happily there is room for confusion with only the past 59 years of Leica M production ... since Leica introduced the Leica M system in 1953. All Hail for the Leica Marketing Department learning Leica M history!

Talking Ordered A Replacement M8

Well my initial M8 experience was not so great with an out of alignment RF and a really dirty sensor that didn't clean easily. But you know what? I went out to shoot with my D200 the other day and it is so big and heavy now that I've gotten used to the R-D1 that it just wasn't *fun.*

So I'm gonna try again! It doesn't hurt that I have some unexpected cash coming in either!

Likely I'll keep the R-D1 as a "back-up" body for the M8 (assuming of course this one's a keeper!)
