On top of being the sweet sport, there is at least one more additional
advantage of the M8 over the M9: as thge M8 sensor being smaller, the
apparent DoF is greater. Now if you are the give me 1mm DoF so I can
focus of the 2nd to the first eyelash type, well, this isn't a good
thing, but for most mortals, that extra apparent DoF can come in
handy.
