I still have R gear, but it is loved, if not often enough. Do use two
lenses a lot: 35-70/4 and 100/2.8 APO Macro. I think if I found a 19 new
version I would use that too, but they are a bit out of my comfort range on
price.

Perhaps, foolishly, I may be the last person shooting with an R Kit (Hell, I
am flipping a coin between OM-3/4Ti 16-600 Zuikos and R-6s (Tamron 17/24/28
else Leica to 560) for international travel with GASP film…
I actually use the stuff so good glass and mechanics are important but if it
is a bit beat, what the heck…
Love to find 19 old version fine
21/24/28 any 350
Old kits with a brace of lenses?
Doubt the fast lenses are cheap...
R3
R5 (In 1994 I sht in Tanzana with Extachrome 64-400 and R-E R-5 and R-6s
superb)
Leicaflex (shockingly never owned one)
beat up SL SL2 R6 R6.2 (doubt there are beat up R6.2’s but)
R8/9 with cheap but working DMR (yeah flies in the face of above but…)
And all the Leica odd bits
Particularly the adapter so I can use my R Mount Teylt 400/560 on a Viso
II/IIa/III
Thanks
