I use the Soft Release on a R6.2 - works fine, no stiffness or any other effects. Don't really need it when holding the camera horizontally, but for portrait format shots it is a godsend. No more hunting around for the shutter button and you can now use your thumb to trip the shutter. What had me concerned when I ordered it was that it could cover up the speeds on the R's shutter dial. But luckily it doesn't - so would definitely recommend 'softies' to the R crowd (despite the www.rapidwinder.com site only displaying them on Ms!).
