For the most part it's the glass, although a very few of the R glass
isn't that good. For example the Leica R fisheye which I own, (made by
Minolta) doesn't quite compare to my Pentax fisheye. So out comes the
Spotmatic from time to time. Don't discard your K1000!
To me the R8 body is a joy to use, and I now prefer it to any of the
other 35mm SLRs that I own. I also have an SL but find that I hardly
ever use it. It's just my preference... I know that others prefer the
SL over other Leica R cameras.
Can't help you with the in-between models, I went directly from the SL
to the R8.

I'm interested in purchasing a Leica SLR, had a look at a R4s model, am
wondering how Leica SLRs compare to a non-Leica SLR. Is it altogether
an issue of lenses? (I am now using a Pentax K1000). Would definitely
appreciate feedback pertaining to your experience with R4s. By the way,
why is there an "s" attached to the 4?
Thanks,
