  You can switch sensors you know.

  I take your point if your point is that you are spending all that money buying all that genuine Leica goodness and then getting a shitty sensor in it, but I have an RD-1 which came with a 6mp sensor by someone (I am not hot on sensors) and I had the sensor switched for the sensor from the M8 (The RD1 was the Cosina-Kobayashi prototype commissioned by Leica for the M8).

  So if I can switch up the RD1 surely you could switch up the M8 too. Sensors don't cost hardly anything at all.

  • I guess if the sensor dont cost that much then why would anyone pay that much?JSK
  • Just a little note, I would love to have M8 or M8.2 so i can use my Leica lensJSK
  • Even used M8 cost 2500-3000 and for that I would get Canon or NikonJSK
