I'd be inclined to agree that R is the way to go, simply because the kind of photos you say you take are better composed with an SLR's viewfinder. But it's occured to me that, if we can get depth-of-field preview on the M8's LCD screen, it might become the perfect hybrid of rangefinder and ultra-high-end digital point & shoot--with certain kinds of photos composed in the rangefinder and others composed on the LCD. That idea probably sends shudders down a few spines here, but it might make the M8 a perfect choice for a much larger (if still a wealthy) audience.
