So I like big cameras. My R4sP stays in my camera bag unless I need a second body out at the same time. But I also like big lenses. 70-170 2.8 Vario Apo, 19mm Elmarit, 35 Summilux R (don't have one right now) etc. The M is for small lenses. The R is for high performance lenses, magnification, speed, angle of view, etc. Eric Welch Carlsbad, CA http://www.neteze.com/ewelch Memory is deceptive because it is colored by today's events. - Albert Einstein
