Hi Rusty, Please elaborate on why you believe the Bessa Rs feel so
cheap.  Thanks. /matt

I can't wait to see what it is. 
  I'd like to see them offer an electronic shuttered,
metal body,m-mount Bessa. The Bessa-R,while being a
neat little camera,just aren't worth the $500US they
generally run..they feel so cheap. Certainly not up to
the feel of the lenses Cosina makes for it.
