Subject: R problems

I've been reading with interest the M6 problem reports. If I were
experiencing these problems with one of the worlds best cameras, I'd be
screaming my bloody head off. Being an R user, I have not experienced any
problems. I wonder why the plethora of problems seems to be associated with
the M camera. And the problems always seem to be the same. Wind lever
falling off, frame counter not working, etc. Someone is not yelling loud
enough. THEY CAN'T HEAR YOU!!! Is there any set of problems that plagued
the R cameras? I've had R3's, R4's, an R6, and now R7's and find them very
substantial. The R8 doesn't count yet as it's still a baby. Perhaps it's
that this list is made-up of mostly M users so that's why M problems seem
to dominate. But I know there are R users out there. Anyone have any
repeating problems??? Or any problems at all???
