Ok. A couple of things to add. Can\'t be longer than a fifty equivalent and must be at least 2.0.
2.8 on an m8 is going to push the iso too much i think and on a shorter focal length won\'t give me enough subject isolation it would seem. I\'ll play around with 2.0 and 2.8 on the x1 and see what iso I\'m hitting on average, but I\'d guess 1600 if I hand hold well, which may be cleaner than 1250 on the m8, I\'ll have to look.
The other thing is finding the right version leica lens. It\'s daunting! I can\'t seem to find things on eBay or similar that match. I\'ll check the local shop too. But there\'s only one shot. Maybe two.
There\'s a lens on ebay which is said to have smooth focus and clear optics.. but it is beat to hell...
