valid question - it's also interesting to note that in the thread I referred
to (http://www.photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=003ZzL) Mike Levitt
also claims more accurate flash and non-flash exposures with the R8, and
comparing viewfinders, the R8's is like cleaning the petroleum jelly off the
lens.
