The R6.2 seems to hold its price remarkably well! On Ffordes (UK) list second hand R6.2s are half as much again as good R8s (£999 compared to £649). Your choice seems to depend on whether you want the "safety zone" of a mechanical camera apart from its relatively simple metering, or the more sophisticated metering and better ergonomics of the R8. £350 buys more glass!
