Re: The All New More and More Fun w/M8 Images
I love this shot - well seen!
Congrats on your new 28 cron. My favorite lens on both the M8 and the M9.At last, Summicron 28mm acquired! What a lens! Some first impressions during a stroll along the Golden Horn in Istanbul. B+W's are camera jpegs, the rest C1.
Best,
Osman

Oh Lloyd - now you've really gone and one it...
Do you realize how much trouble you're going to cause by posting an image this nice taken with an iphone??? Leica may sent a hitman after you!
Thanks for indulging me just one more. (And especially since it's "off topic"... taken with my iPhone)

Nice shot Rob. Great light, and a beautiful subject - what a nice comboI was at a wedding a few weeks ago and couldn't resist when I saw the sister of the bride in this great light. I used a 35mm Summicron ASPH.

Re: The All New More and More Fun w/M8 Images
As I browse through the fantastic images in this thread, the thought occurs to me...
Why do we have separate threads for M8 and M9 images? Perhaps we should merge these into a single "Leica M images" thread. The look of M8 and M9 images are extremely similar - in fact I would claim they are indistinguishable even at large web size display. They both have the same creamy smooth outputs that are such a joy to view.
I understand the initial urge to separate out M9 images for those who are looking for samples in order to assess a possible purchase. But now that the initial surge of photos is available, perhaps it makes sense to merge these.
What say you all? I'll also post this over in the M9 thread.

If there's a strong consensus to merge the threads, I'll do it. If not, no problem - we can keep them separate.

I kind of like the separation myself at least for now so we can see what the M9 is doing but certainly merge them later but I will do what others feel as well.

Re: The All New More and More Fun w/M8 Images
Very glad to hear you say it. It may be that those who own both can see differences on their own monitors when working with RAWs, but I have been excited and a little relieved to see that the results from both cameras are very close indeed. I like the idea of an "M" thread where the focus is on the images. Regardless of which digital M is used.

Here is another from the wedding. The photographer was up on a balcony trying to shoot the wedding party and guests. I don't know how it came out, as he ould have been shooting straight into the sun. On my way to join the crowd in the background, I crouched down low to get the sun blocked by the bride. The groom is telling me to get back with the rest of the guests

You know what, Mike. Don't let the word out that they have that hitman. After all the $$$ I've spent on Leica gear over the years, my wife may want to hire him!
