Has anyone compared their M8 and 28mm f/2.8 Elmarit with a Fuji X100? It seems that the field of view and depth of field would be the same. How is the high ISO noise in the files?

    Zack Arias just posted this excellent review of the Fujifilm x100 :

    I am impressed, although I think that, for my small camera, I will stick with my Olympus GF1 and 20mm 1.7 because I shoot photos of my kids at close (less than 3') range and wide open at f1.7 quite often, and the GF1 just works very well for this.

    I have the M8.2 and borrowed a friends X100, i must they dont even compare even with the firmware upgrade, First the manual lens does not focus the way a Leica /voigtlander lens does second the macro @ f2 is terrible, Its nice and compact, It is an all round P&S camera which is good for that, I wold not get one just yet and also you can't compare a 6,000 to a 1,000 $$ camera, Nice imitation thou lolol.
