The problem is that you loss the extreme fraeline, 24mm for the M8, you have a very slight reduction of brightness, and in my opinion this is not a big help to improve focusing, the focusing base remains the same but enlarged. What is really nice for focusing is the M3. I don't know other brands, but never buy the ones from HK Supplies, me and another member, we have returned them. The eyes..., are my problem too.
