Hi Jamie,

Thanks for the great post. Don't forget that one is never testing just the DR of a camera. The effective DR is going to be determined by the M8 and the specific lens. The macro contrast of a lens can have a large affect on DR which, as you know, I've written quite a bit about. It's actually impossible to compare the effective DR of two cameras unless they use the same lens, othewise, it's the DR of a camera/lens system that one is assessing.

Glad you love the 28/2.8. I still highly recommend it. Am testing 28s right now for a lens article and it is coming up aces.

Cheers,

Sean
