Tina,

>>Why not try the M8?  It's the perfect size and so much better than 
Canon and Nikon!<<

I've given the M8 a lot of consideration. I asked myself if I'd be
better off with an M8 instead of my film Ms. The answer was no, since
photography is only a hobby, I don't shoot all that much, and most of
what I do shoot is BW. Though I complain about developing film, there
are certain aspects about it that I really enjoy.  

In regard to color, which is where I think digital has a big advantage
over film, there are cameras that are out there that will do most of
what I need at a fraction of the cost. 

There are a lot of good reasons to buy an M8. But sadly none that fit
me.
