That camera system was the cornerstone for the trade to the M4P. I find the R system really nice (I had a 50/2 and a 80-200/4.5 [earliest Japanese style]), but just wanted an M. It's odd, because the photography I usually do is more designed for the R system, but I prefer the M. Not only are my photos better, but I also like the portability of the system. I can carry it in my backpack to and from work and always have the camera ready. Something I didn't do with my SLR. Eric Platt St. Paul, MN
