  I think you should use the DOF markings for at least 1-2 stops wider, so 
if 

you want to shoot at F8, use the DOF markings for F4 or F5.6.

-------------------

I don't mind thinking about composition, but taking time to interpolate to 
reconcile 

formats becomes a distraction. It's not much of a problem with a DSLR 
because you can 

gauge DOF optically on a D70 with a standard 35mm lens. I suppose Leica 
could etch two 

scales on the new lenses. One for FF and the other for 4/3 or whatever the 
M8 uses.
