I wear glasses and the R7 is pretty good visually- allowing me to see the LEDs adequately. The meter seems pretty good, and the aperture priority mode has a center weighted metering mode that works quite well. The R5 is pretty close in terms of feature, from what I've seen, but I would say the R7 is a better, more robust choice if you can get a good deal on one. Dan dwpost@msn.com
