[Leica] M8 Article in LFI

All good points. Can't and don't want to disagree with any of them.
Bottom line - clients want digital - and I have to continuously  
practice with digital equipment both hardware and software to give  
them the best quality;  just as I had to do with film. And work flow  
has simply moved to digital. When I do shoot film it immediately  
becomes digitized in any event. Even to get commercial lab prints  
they've all gone digital prints. So unless I find myself out of work  
it feels like I have little choice.
