Hi Jim,
I am using the new Elmarit-M 28/2.8 asph with the M8. The lens is  
superb if you can live without F/2. I do. No vignetting, FOV pretty  
close to the 35mm I'm used to, incredible resistance to flare, very  
very sharp. A little more contrasty than the previous version Elmarit- 
M 28/2.8 pre-aspherical, but in line with other asph lenses.
As a bonus, it is a very compact lens.

It's glued to the M8.

Best,
Ed
