The review is indeed a good one. It echoes my own experience with the
M8 in Wetzlar - the most intuitive digital camera I've ever handled.
My own shots using the M8/50(66.5)/1 Nocti combo are at:

and follow the Wetzlar link.
He makes an interesting point about M8 economics. As you're only
using electrons rather than film, you could indeed recoup the cost
premium over the M7 quite quickly. But I think I'll stick to my film
Ms pro tem as they're long paid for and still need the exercise.
