I've got that set up. I went thru the route of selling off my Canon 5D and all the lenses for an M8 last year. I found that I really "missed" the DSLR for its many complimentary uses at longer focal lengths. About a month ago, after looking at the E3 and A700 I decided on the D300.
There's an adjustment setting to compensate for back or front focus for up to 10 or so different lenses (no need to send lenses & body in for FF or BF adjustments). You'll enjoy the 6 fps or 8 fps with the grip for action series...
I still mainly use the M8.
