I've never laid hands on a rangefinder, and I used to think it'd be occasionally hard to focus correctly with manual focus. But I keep reading that it's a marvel to have and shoot with it, in almost all respects (apart from the financial one, of course).
Biggest difficulty for me is that I'd prefer to sell my Canon gear first, and this would take time (it's a lot ). Another concern would be I'd have to separate with the amazing 35/1.4L and the stunning 85/1.2L II. Another option is that for tele shots I'd probably have to keep the ultra-fast 1D Mk II N and the EF 70-200/2.8L.
In any event, it's good they gave us now a FF digital M Leica. In 3-5 years time, they will have improved it as well, so it'll be even better buying one at that stage.
On the other hand, used M8s go for $1,500 now, you know...
