Don't you hate it when you know someone is setting you up for a joke
picture, but you have to look anyway to see what they did?
Could Ted or another Canadian LUGgite please arrange for David's camera bag
to be confiscated?

Cheers
Hoppy

Recently there has been a lot of discussion (particularly on the LUG) 
over some recently posted photos purporting to show the new Leica M8.

They beget the questions... Is this how it looks? Is it real?  After 
all, the photos appear heavily Photoshopped.

Thanks to some good connections and a complete lack of scruples, I am 
posting the first, accurate photos of the prototype M8 .... 
Guaranteed, not Photoshopped!
