For those who have used both an R-D1 and M8 -- how much actual
difference is there in the feel and image quality? I really like the
idea of a digital rangefinder capable of using Leica M glass.
However, $6000 is cost prohibitive for me and I'll bet for many other
"advanced amateurs". Used R-D1 are priced within my grasp. What am I
giving up for the $4000 difference? I figure that the digital
technology in either camera will be obsolete long before the hardware
wears out.
