[Leica] The Leica M8.2 Experience

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

I also felt strongly a comparison of the M8 to an M7 was just odd and
irrelevant.
And a seemingly out of the blue comparison to the long out of anyone's
thoughts Epson RD1.

I could write an article comparing a M8 to a SPEED GRAPHIC I have on in my
storage space. Except no one would care about -
 my personal journey in camera gear.
