why all M8's being shipped to US?

Weak US dollar means Leica make more profit selling cameras to US buyers. If the dollar strengthens, European M8 supplies will likely pick up.

Yes, as others have already pointed out, it is the other way around.

 

The dollar is projected to continue weakening. Leica has pre-orders for confirmed prices they need to fill. The quicker they fill those, the less money they lose due to currency fluctuations.

 

That's my assumption, of course. I have no actual insight into Leica's business - regarding both currency hedge issues as well as distribution preferences.
