Peter Bailer Posted March 19, 2016 Share #41 Â Posted March 19, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I've got two R8s one of which I use with a DMR (but that's another subject), and a R4. The R8 and winder (as I normally use it) although heavyish is lighter than my Canon EOS 1n and battery grip! Â I would say the R8 is a great camera and as the number suggests twice as good as the R4. Â Hope that's helpful. I agree fully with above. I've got a R5 with winder, a R7 with motordrive, a R8 with winder and a R 8 with DMR(still working fine---> touch wood). For mee as a Macro Photographer it was important to have TTL-flash measuring. The Leica R type below R5, do not have this possibility. Â In case you are looking for a DMR the only option is a R8 (or a more expensive R9) Â Regards Peter from Switzerland Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
