Doug:

Would it make you give up your SL?

Here is a question.  If your eyesight is that bad that you can't focus a 
R8, will you notice if the prints or slides are out of focus?

The focus aid will probably help the sales of the R8.  Probably a good thing.

Is the digital camera next?  Why else would they make a new 15mm lens, when 
they probably sold very few of the previous design.

Regards,

Robert
