I, basically, agree with Mark. Not having a R8 I'm completing the M arsenal
with a Nikon FM2-T and 180 f1:2,8, you know "junk" that BTW takes nice
shots, but before moving I shoul'd like to test the Canon EOS 200mm
f1:1,8(another wonderfull "junk" although rather massive lens).
Unfortunately I haven't, still, put my hand on it nor on a Leica 180!

Kind regards

Félix
