I'm curious.

1. What's wrong with "M8"? It seems to me to be a logical progression. You surely don't expect another new film M body after this, do you? It wouldn't surprise me if in a couple of years the M7 is dropped, leaving only the "revolutionary" M8 (M9, etc) and the "reactionary" MP.

2. Surely one of the greatest triumphs of the M8, and the "digitisation" of the M-line in general is that the M8 is more like the M7 than the M5 was like the M4...

Regards,

Bill
