Small and compact,
outstanding picture quality for its size, and considering that it was introduced late 2006,
it's picture quality is very good at that time.........
no one knows you took a snap shot.........when you want no one to know........
it is much louder than previous modles of M-system.........twice nosier than M6.......
less vibrations at shutter release, (no reflex mirror), no black out of view finder...........
there are more unique good points than bad, when it comes to M-system, and the good points are priceless.......
缺點:
ISO control is not desirable at ISO 640 and above, so it is kind of forcing you to get very expensive large aperture lenses........and original lens of Leica is so pricy if new........
one camera and three lens easily over 70k (large aperture)
hard to focus with longer lenses, 50mm is hard, and 75mm is harder........
評價:
One of the best camera system,
Do not compare this camera with othe systems, it is an extension of a different system, and it is the first digital camera of such system,
I love to take snap shots, my D3 will draw too much attentions, and I will be stopped for the shots I am after........
The black version camera allows me to shoot photos discretely, the latest firmware update (easily downloaded form Leica site) will allow your M8 to shoot in DISCRETE mode which is a little less noisy than before, as you can control the 2nd portion of the shutter noise..........
price is dropping to a reasonable range.......this is good news,
not much difference from the latest M8.2,
the best (eat rice) camera as it is easy to carry around to places......
outstanding ISO 160, and 320 picture quality, good at 640,
consider shooting B+W with 640 and above.......still get beautiful leica taste.......
one of the most stylish camera in digital world.
