My R usage, relative to my M system, really increased after purchasing the R8s. However, I won't part with my R7s; they've been very reliable. BTW, I just got my R-80 f1.4 lens; really balances well on my R8. I did trade in my 180 f3.4 & a M4P body to minimize my cash out. I still want to prune/add R lenses; it's getting a little more complex now;~)! I want to add the R-19 f2.8; however, I'm unclear as to what I should trade in. My current R line up is as follows; 1. ) 24 f2.8. 2.) 35 f2 3.) 80 f1.4 4.) 90 f2.8 5.) 70-180 APO. 6.) 280 f4 APO. Candidates for the trade are either the 24 f2.8 and/or the 90 f2.8. Opinions welcome ;~)! Tom D.
