Doug Herr,

   >>I'd ask myself whether my hand-held ( R7) or<<
>>tripod based (R8 w/Apo ) work needed a 2nd body<<

>>OTOH, what's the purpose of the third body.....<<
        >>keeping another lens ready to use?<<

Good qualifications! I'd like to have the third SLR
for hand-held work w/another lens ready to go!

Although, these requirements don't preclude use 
of an R8; the R7/winder/strap is a classic for 
hand-held work ;-)!

So, now it's onward to try to find a R7 body.

Thanks,Tom D.
