[Leica] The Leica M8.2 Experience

[sonc.hegr at gmail.com (Sonny Carter)]

I bring my M8 to mass every time I go.  People don't even notice it
anymore.  I take pictures sometimes during blessings or other times.  No one
looks at me in disgust; they don't even notice.  My camera is quieter than
someone dropping a kneeler, or a baby squalling.

Even in Church there is ambient noise that covers the  M8 sound.  I have the
software upgrade. knick...buzzz.
