I am looking for a reasonable priced used Leica "R" body. 
There are quite a number of R4 ones for sale here in southern
California, some more R4s and a very few R5.
Concidering that I probably can live without some of the functions,
I would appreciate any advise on the pro's and con's of the models?
Anything to avoid? What would be a fair price in good condition?
Will the R5 drop in price with the rumored introduction of a R ('8'?).
Thanks in advance.
Bernard
