I agree with Doug about the image quality of the DMR, but would rather carry the M8 as it is lighter. I find that when I take the M8 only, there are always images it cannot capture and the DMR with R8 can. So I guess I will have to up my time at the gym and learn to carry both. ;-) Gene ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doug Herr" <wildlightphoto at earthlink.net> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Sunday, April 11, 2010 6:38:03 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: Re: [Leica] advice wanted for carry camera Tina Manley wrote: >I don't understand either.

Same for me, and my Leica isn't an M! However we don't all have the same priorities. For me, the weight of the DMR is well compensated for by the image quality... but YMMV.
