Leica M8 Pro Review By PhotographyReview
Leica used the M8 to introduce their new M-TTL electronic flash metering system. The camera’s exposure metering determines the flash power for correct flash exposure. To do this, the camera uses a pre-flash to calculate the correct duration and flash output. I was able to use the M-TTL flash metering with two different external flash units. Easiest to use was Leica’s diminutive SF 24D hot shoe flash unit. I also used the more powerful and versatile Metz 54 MZ-4i, in combination with the SCA 3502 M5 Leica adapter

PhotographyReview reviewed the Leica M8 and gave out”The Leica M8 will appeal to those who value high quality images, portability, ruggedness, the Leica marque, and the camera’s ability to provide a digital platform for Leica’s M lens system. The M8 will please travel, wedding, and candid photographers, as well as photojournalists who can take advantage of its unobtrusive nature and fast handling. However, the M8 will not work well for sports and wildlife photographers who need real telephoto lenses to get them close to the action, or photographers who love to make macro shots of insects and flowers.
