And that is the entire point of the M8 - to be able to use the M mount lenses on a digital camera. I like some of my Canon L lenses, particularly the 85/1.2, but the rest don't compare to my Leica M lenses for edge to edge sharpness and resolution. I can see the difference very clearly in most photos and it's worth it to me to learn how to use the M8 to be able to use those lenses. Tina Tina Manley, ASMP, NPPA http://www.tinamanley.com
