Certainly it is not as convenient as a dedicated setup with a dSLR. I just experimented with my Visoflex on the M9 and of course you don't have to allow for the smaller sensor of the M8 in that instance. If you get the bellows as well it can be very versatile and a lot of FUN. You will learn about 10 new acronyms just shopping for all of the goodies you can play with. Consider a 90 or 135 with detachable heads (older models) if you cannot find the 65mm Elmar at a reasonable price.
