It is a bit louder due to the motor winder, although mine seems to have quieted down some, but not a problem for my purposes. If you shoot color then you need the IR filters, but if you only shoot B&W then the filters are not needed. The M8 is a M camera without the wind lever, which will seem a bit weird at first until you get used to it. I'd buy another in a flash if I had the cash. It is a large expense, but then Leicas have always been way above the curve price wise.
