Thanks Rafa, still learning to use the M8 capturing moving objects with manual focus is still a work in progress for me. I am getting better with the Leica every outing. I am commuted to learn rangefinder photography I have gotten rid of all my Nikon gear.

how´s the weight/body size compared to your old nikon?…i somehow start to make more pics with the phone than taking the big ass cam with me all the time!...need something smaller/better!

[derivative666]

The weight of the m8 is not terribly heavy like my Nikon was the M8 is extremely solid yet much more compact then a d700 with 28-70 2.8. The camera to me seems to be balanced perfectly. The Leica glass is really what the whole setup is about.

their is always a learning curve mate…no matter where in life! so yeah...just got to figure out how the fastest way is to learn it
you learning pretty fast i see!

It is quite different from a SLR. Menus are so simple which allows you to strictly concentrate on your composition.

careful there finn have you seen the price of leica glass? I love it and all but I wouldn't get into the leica stuff on a whim. and there are no zooms, effectively nothing but (excellent) prime lenses

if you buy smart (used) however the stuff holds its value well so you can buy and sell and try different stuff out

go check out rangefinderforum.com if you're really interested
