Leica has a unique camera on its hands with the M8.2. Those working in reportage, press documentary and travel could use a tool like the M8.2 successfully alongside their existing DSLR set-up to good effect, capturing scenes they might otherwise miss. The blend of old and new is just right. It feels like you are ‘making’ pictures with the M8.2, not just ‘taking’, or ‘capturing’ them.

PERIOD. The M8.2 has been out for a while now, but since I do not get free cameras sent to me, it took me a while to get one and I am just now writing about it.
