Great, please keep chiming in and *thanks* for staying right on topic. EV and ISO are most important to me as well but WB can be important to JPEG shooters, especially those wiring pictures in to papers and magazines (straight from the camera).

 

As Andy said, we could do this as a poll but so far it looks like we're OK like this.

[B&W]

Yes to the changes. Current M8 owner since december 06

[ck1]

Yes to all 3. M8 owner since November 2006.

[fjmcsu]

current owner;yes to all 3

[adan]

A. Yes to the changes as described (left/right button with LCD off). M8(s) owner since introduction.

 

B. Personally, I would like the selection confirmed by EITHER touching the shutter button or by a second press on the LEFT/RIGHT/PROTECT button that started the process.

 

I.E. EV change and confirmation via left/down/down/left or a similar combination. Saves shuffling fingers from control dial to shutter button in some situations

 

C. If I HAD to pick only one, fast EV compensation would be most important - but it sounds like your proposal packages all 3 anyway.

[cjago]

Definite yes.

Let's go for all 3 suggestions - Happy M8 owner since the end of March

I would love to see the changes Sean suggests. I currently own an M8.

I like option III the best. However also allowing the reassignment of the protect key to any other function in the menu would be great.

[etms]

Fully support these efforts to influence Leica.

 

New user - purchased M8 and 4 Leica lenses in last 6 months.

[eric_bowles]

Yes to all three proposed changes -- I'd certainly use them.

 

I've owned two M8s since July 2007.

[hansbakken]

Yes, I would like to have such a function. User since summer 2007

[sm23221]

Excellent idea. I vote yes to these changes. It would make a great camera even greater!

Hallo,

Look here: Leica M

[SJP]

I. Yes

II. Yes, the protect function is superfluous - or the protect button should be only button on the camera that is programmed not to work (to amuse the trolls)

III. Yes

I am a very happy owner of an M8
