Let me add my 2 centimes. We all know AF and MF are two CHOICES. I use an R6.2. My wife uses Minolta AF SLRs for portrait assignments. She tells me that she cannot focus with R's in indoor snapshots at interviews (she never uses flash). I never tell her "Yes, you CAN!" I myself am waiting for AF Leica Rs. Then "old" MF lenses will be bargains for me. ^_^ Leicalement, Mikiro Strasbourg, Europe http://members.tripod.com/arbos3/cigogne/index.html
