my Epson died this morning and i'm not sure how long it will take in service. whilst i have other cameras in my arsenal, they just aren't the same. i am addicted to rangefinder photography, for better or for worse.
i can't really afford it right now, but... this did get me thinking about the M8. the shutter noise is my biggest issue, so i would definitely have to do the upgrade for that.
with all you know now, what would you do? buy a used M8 (where quality could be an issue unless it's from one the darling members here), knowing you would have to cough up a somewhat obscene amount of money later for the shutter upgrade) or buy a brand new black M8.2?
thank you in advance for any and all input!
