Subject: [Leica] M8 and non-converted Leica M lenses

I know Leica is offering a discount on converting M lenses to the M8
electronics.

I'm curious.  If one buys the M8 but plans to use relatively recent M
lenses, without converting them, what features are lost?  In short, can
non-converted lenses be used and, if so, what features are lost?

Thanks.
