The RD-1 is certainly a god M8 backup as it works in a similar way, and without expensive adapters, but as mentioned many times here, there's a reliability issue with some samples dued to a poor quality control. As a pro photog I'd prefer the same camera as backup, for ergonomy reasons, but for us amateurs I'd say any camera is ok as backup as long as it takes pictures.
