I have seen so many used R bodies, still looking to find one that works, I found only one R6.2 out of the lot that was 100%. All of the rest had flaws and problems. I did find one R8, but that comes with a ticking sound and a pin. Anyone that comes on this forum and says that R is just as reliable as M is basically trying to get another one free from the factory, to replace the broken one in the bottom of their fish tank. I love the R series, they are total crap and I wouldn't shoot anything else. I press the button, turn the dials and the lense does the rest. For a serious camera I am looking at Contax. > At 08:08 AM 17/08/00 +0800, you wrote: > >Many people are using M. Many people want to buy M. Many books and magazines > >talk about M.
