Don't get me started. <g> All I'll say is, R7 1/2 stop settings for shutter speed, much more accurate shutter, shutter speeds down to 4 seconds, more rugged film advance, digital electronics, a bit better TTL flash (not much to crow about though compared to Nikon and Canon). Feels better in my big hands when not motorized. The R6.2 has the advantage of not needing batteries to work (excpet self-timer and meter and ttl flash). Different shutter, probably more rugged, but less accurate than the R7. Can use the motor grip for motors R and R4 (winders). I would say don't worry about anything, but whether you need the auto exposure, greated accuracy of the R7 or the lack of battery dependence of the R6.2. Eric Welch Grants Pass Daily Courier
