The R8 didn't do as well but since it returned with a 1-year guarantee I paid for its repair. I bought a second DMR shortly after the R system was discontinued and people were panicking about parts supply. Since there are good power supply options and both DMRs are working well I haven't seriously looked at other equipment. If both DMRs were to die tomorrow I'd pack silica gel around my lenses for a while: big veterinary bill coming up soon, photo equipment is a lower priority.
