5.0 out of 5 stars The last digital camera you'll ever need, September 20, 2009

This review is from: Leica M8.2 Body Digital Rangefinder Camera (Silver Chrome Body) (Electronics)

As much as the title of my review seems like hyperbole, I assure you it is not. After two weeks of using this camera in just about every environment and condition imaginable -- indoors, outdoors, low-light, still, action, tripod -- I can attest that it is the best I have ever used in my 10 years as a photographer.

This camera is extremely user-friendly and anyone from novice to expert will have no trouble becoming familiar with its wide variety of features. The photo quality is crisp, clean and out-of-this-world sharp. My work camera is a Nikon D3, and on more than a few assignments I have left it in the office in lieu of using my Leica M8.2.

If Leica are able to improve upon this camera in any way with their future releases, I'll be extremely surprised. Their reputation for creating high-quality photography equipment is more than upheld in regard to the M8.2, and it's as if all of their know-how was poured into creating this fine, fine camera. I cannot recommend this highly enough.
