Even though I am using the D4 for DSLR needs more & more, I still use the R8DMR when it is more appropriate, and my M8 gets daily use. It is unfortunate there is little support for repair of the DMR, as mine has a motor issue, but still works just fine with manual advance. I will modify the lenses with LEITAX mounts when it dies completely. At least I will still be able to my R glass.

I'm still a Leica User exclusively and probably will be until I die.
