so...leica m8

[Bangles]

How does the m8 compare with the other film M bodies?
Does it still maintain the 'glow'?

 

[ace]

I think there is an offer now for M8 with any new Summarit for between $7600-7800 depend on where you go. I know Hacker can get it a few hundred cheaper.:bigeyes:
Maybe he wants a new lens but not another M8.:bsmilie:
Go for Hacker offer:thumbsup:

Hi,
Can anyone confirm this please...Im thinking of finally plunging myself onto an M8

Do you want to confirm that Leica has a "glow"? Of course, I can confirm. ;p

Hahahah... glad to know Hacker! I love too many forms of art, and so there is a dire need to prioritise my purchases.
When I started using the Leica and seeing the glow in my b&w, it was hard to go back to the digital SLR. Just want to make sure that the M8 still maintains that super addictive quality, that cant quite be matched elsewhere.

For some of the older stock, possible, based on old prices.

just curious if u ask already.

[To everyone]: I think people here must be more specific with what they want rather than give me a list and expect me to list all the prices. What is available? Everything, depending on what the agent has at the moment.

The prices are generally better, but it is still a Leica, so don't expect to buy a Bentley and hope for a Toyota price. It will never happen.

Most stuff are available. 50 Lux ASPH and 35 Lux ASPH currently backordered. Of course, lenses not in the catalog are not carried.

August? End June no more bro. Maybe I sell you my own M8 .

well, Hacker kor-kor, with a bit of luck, I might be making a trip back end of June ;p

so what about those elmarit sets and dream sets (like 28mm summicron)? You have lobang for those as well?
