mate, i can't afford an m8 as much as i want to. Besides, that magenta cast thing really bugs me. I went to a leica day in london and randomly tried it in the shop and it happened. I'm sure the new filter helps but that just makes things all the more troublesome for me, not to mention the 6bit coding of lenses. RFs are meant to be easier to use, moe basic and instinctive. The M8 just makes everything so complicated.
