At I have my doubts that the difference is the lenses, because nowadays, the R lenses are just as good, or better than the M lenses, the aspherics excepted. But the shutters on the R4 series cameras, and probably the R6(.2) cameras could shake up a bit more than the M cameras, though I have been able to shoot hand held down to 1/4 sec. on a regular basis with the R4. With the R7 it's even better, but my own shaking won't let me go slower very often. - --------------------- Eric Welch Grants Pass, OR Maintenance-free: When it breaks, it can't be fixed
