I own two R4 bodies and have shot many rolls of film through both.  NO
PROBLEMS.  (Unlike my previous F3).  I think they are excellent cameras
and would recommend them highly, particularly since so cheap, too!  I
find the meters very accurate and all very comfortable to use... of
course not as nice for the 'flash TTL' aspect...I suspect the 'problem'
listed here is more anectodotal.   Kent
