[Leica] IMG: M8 1st Shots and impressions.

[len-1 at comcast.net (Leonard Taupier)]

I just went to manual WB setting, put on the hot mirror filter,  
turned on my screwy lights, shot a frame at a white sheet of paper.  
Done. took 15 seconds. Then shot my blue chair. Color came out dead  
on. Yea.  ;-))  Thanks guys,
Len
