You'll= never >regret it. I agree with Ted. R6.2 is great cameras but it suffer from : the speed limitation: 2000 instead of 8000 and synchro 100 instead of 250= =2E and ... THE NOISE !!!, listen to the shutter noise of the R6.2 (or R6)and then to= the R8 !! (with a film in the camera). The R6-R6.2 are not the M6 equivalent for the R family as far as noise is= concern.
