well I sold my M4-P, Fuji X-Pro w/35mm f2, and bought an M8 for

Just pull the trigger.

I would but dose CCD colors makes me want to live

Good for you OP. Being able to sell gear to buy new gear without putting in additional $$$ is the best. I've gone through 3 camera kits that way.

>>2890612
No more ccd colors for you anyway

>>2890612

good luck. Leica m8 is good. But you know it's only the name and colors.

you should've bought a m6 for a real Leica

>>2890618
No he should have just kept his m4-p

Also why the fuck would you pay 400$ too much, the m8 is around 1000 used you dipshit

>>2890829
It's called "buying from a licensed dealer with 2-year warranty, minimal shutter actuations, cleaned and fully functional and in perfect condition with accessories" and not buying from some fuck on ebay whose camera may die in a year

>>2890607
not at all, OP, whatever floats your boat man
>letting /p/ assess your purchases

>>2890829

he should've bought the m6

>>2890838
This, paying retail isn't always such a bad thing

I only pray that your CCD stays good! I know selling the M4P had to hurt.

Consider a Color Checker Passport to create color profiles. This really made my M8 experience kick up a few notches. You retain the really cool look of the M8, but can reign in some of the hard parts.

Now, make a strategy for picking up an M240 in about 2 years. You're going to start wanting one in about 3 months.

Nope.

Nikon D700 CCD is one of the best images I saw. If it isn't bulkier as it is, it would be the best digital cam ever made.

I'm not even mad. I should have learned my lesson by now but I keep buying cheap cameras and crossing my fingers hoping they don't end up as paperweights. My track record is not very good.

OP here. Technically I only paid $800 for the M8 after selling my M4-P and Fuji gear.

Two days in and I really like the camera, no complaints yet.

Although it's pretty damn big and noticeable compared to a film Leica. Walking around my city snapping that loud-ass shutter has turned a few heads.
