Except that I went the other way and bought an R-6 because the Leica optics had the closest characteristics to the Minolta. The added advantage was to integrate the viso system lenses and bellows to the R6. The final advantage was the relatively stable prices of used R-lenses as compared to the used Minolta lenses. The Minolta system is currently being used by my daughter. Unfortunately, she is now eyeing the M-3 and my spouse refers to the R-6 system as her camera --- I think I am a victim of my own propaganda. Regards, Bill Larsen ohlen@lightspeed.net
