joern Posted February 22, 2007 Share #22 Posted February 22, 2007 @ jaap, beautiful sphere in your "young lady" pic. Well done. It seems to be worth to have closer look at those old lenses. (BTW, your first 3 ones are very good, too.) Thanks for inspiration. jørn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wparsonsgisnet Posted February 22, 2007 Share #25 Posted February 22, 2007 There is no question that I could not live without this camera. It was a long wait, but it paid off! As a result, Leica can't even keep lenses in stock! Yippee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timwalker Posted February 22, 2007 Share #26 Posted February 22, 2007 I'm glad you started this thread. I have enjoyed my M8 and I understand it's limitations and quirks. I'm happy to accept them in order to be able to use my Leica M glass and still enjoy the rangefinder experience with a digital capture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted February 22, 2007 Share #29 Posted February 22, 2007 Thanks Kurt. I think a quote from Washi21 on RFF sums it up beautifully: I've seen loads of stunning pictures from this camera ,enough to satisfy me that when it is attached to a brain that can use it, it somehow manages to produce wonderful images. It has brought my photography to a higher level -and I've been taking photographs for over fifty years. Talk about old dogs not being able to learn new tricks - debunked by Leica.

thpeters Posted February 23, 2007 Share #30 Posted February 23, 2007 My second day with the M8 and the 35 mm 1:2. I am still in a learning curve with this great new toy.. Welcome, dear visitor!

Enoteca Posted February 23, 2007 Share #32 Posted February 23, 2007 In a dark church, high in the mountains. Silence, no flash, no tripod, just me and the M8.... Jan, congratulations from another old man still learning new tricks. As others mentioned, the hills of Netherland have completly changed. Would you please be so kind to communicate the dates of your church-photo - I mean ISO, shutter etc. Great shots ! Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisoje Posted February 23, 2007 Share #33 Posted February 23, 2007 6 days and counting... No problems so far here in cold North. For that reason, I am taking my M8 to Miami for a serious testing at South Beach/Little Havana... Stay tuned for samples:) Welcome, dear visitor!

brianpe Posted February 23, 2007 Share #34 Posted February 23, 2007 The M8's been fantastic. The feeling of it in my hands is enough to love owning it. I've had zero problems with the camera, other than it has a tendency to show the shortcomings of whoever is behind the viewfinder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nryn Posted February 23, 2007 Share #35 Posted February 23, 2007 I couldn't be happier. As I think I've mentioned elsewhere, with my very well-equipped DSLR outfit, I increasingly felt like I was merely holding up a photo taking machine. With the M8 I feel like I'm a photographer again.

waterlenz Posted February 23, 2007 Share #36 Posted February 23, 2007 It was a great 'companion' during my recent trip to the southwest. Shot was with a 24 Elmarit and polarizer.

wilfredo Posted February 23, 2007 Share #38 Posted February 23, 2007 The images on this thread are the best publicity for the M8. I've really enjoyed them. I remain extremely happy I purchased the camera. Here's a shot I did today with a 50mm Konica Hexanon lens (not an expensive Leica lens) and even with this lens the results couldn't be more pleasing.

k_g_wolf ✝ Posted February 23, 2007 Share #39 Posted February 23, 2007 Great photos from the dutch alps, India ect. and a very impressive image above. Thx for posting this to Guy, Jaap and Wifredo and the other participants. Results like these are the best advertisement for the M8 I can imagine. Much better than the hunt for mistakes which was really getting boring after some months. Best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott kirkpatrick Posted February 23, 2007 Share #40 Posted February 23, 2007 Here's a nice example of working close with the CV15/4.5 and using ISO 1250 and evidence that the 1954 collapsible Summicron still works fine: scott Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
