One of the problems is that it's easy to see a few isolated problems and
think that they apply to all samples of the camera. This isn't the case.
I've been using my M8 for almost four months. The only problem so far has
been the magenta colouring and that's fixed by the use of filter. Other than
than, no issues what so ever, and I'm having more fun with this camera than
any other I've ever used.
