The new sound is more quiet but still sounds a bit clacky -- more like an R-D1 then an M film camera. But still it is an improvement. I'd have to hold and listen to a modified M8 before deciding how successful this update would be for me. >Yes >>Is that really what Leica is talking about? A physical replacement of the >>existing clap-trap shutter with something more "M-like"?
