There are many compact M and mirrorless compact cameras releases lately from different manufacturers. Just wondering if the M8 is still a good camera to get vs getting these new cameras to use with Leica lenses?
If you want latest gadget with good high iso, than the answer is no.
If you want a rangefinder and can't afford the M9 or M, than the answer is yes.
If you want the best way to manual focus the M lenses, than the answer is yes.
If you want a fantastic camera on low (160, 320) ISO's, than the answer is yes
The M8 has some flaws like more noise on high iso's, need to 6-bit code wide angle lenses and the need to use UV/IR filters.
But beside that, its a great rangefinder camera and I really loved its output. The colors on low ISO's are really stunning.
It has a 1,33x smaller sensor which is nice compared to the 1,6x or 1,5x mirrorless camera's.
And, no matter how good the mirrorless camera's are, they are no rangefinder camera and can't compete if you are looking for one.
