I was thinking about this last summer but now I'm leaning that way again. What I'd like is an R8 in black with passport warranty and a motor drive. The issue of lenses then comes up and what I'm thinking of is: 35-70 zoom and 80-200 f4 zoom OR I'd go for two primes the 50 f1.4 and the 100 f2.8 your thoughts on these choices would be very valuable. The lenses do NOT need to have passport warrenty. I have 35, 50 and 90mm lenses for my M6's. I'm hoping to primarily use the R8 for longer focal lengths and for portraiture. I prefer to use a prime for portraiture. I am wary of buying an R8 without the passport warranty because of it's electronic nature. Thank you for your thoughts.
