The M8 Manual is now on-line for downloading.

Looks like this rather than Langer's Feeling and Form will be tonight's reading.

Stovall,

You know, I really hope the M8 delivers, because I've never seen someone more excited over a new camera than you! Any word on the release date yet?

Mid-November seem to be the time. Cooter's in Dallas is to call me when they have one for actual sale.

So, have you memorized it yet?


I found the 1D manual a few days before the DSLR arrived... boy did I study that thing...

Buying anything Leica is like buying real-estate: It's value will only go up. Well, sorta.

The lenses hold their own but do go down. Even though older lens prices are moving up. I don't think the M8 body will be like the other M in terms of used price but we won't see the 18 month new model madness either.

I know the Nocti and ASPH's will be as good or better than L glass both optically and in value retention.
