I found it amazing that the images were sharper with IS on when I was using a 24mm equivalent at 1/500 of a sec. I have not really tested it against the M8, but if technology is going into the M9 IS would be one thing I'd like to see.

I shoot a lot of wildlife, and for that the M8 is useless. I ask -- Is this still true in the days of VR lenses? Does the M8 let you shoot at a lower shutter speed than a Canikon with an image stabilization lens? I dunno, I'm asking. I haven't seen any tests. _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
