Hi, Dave,
Any of those are great, and you cant go wrong with any of them.  R4S will be
the most compact & easiest to run around with.  RE might be the least
expensive of them at the moment   R5, many say, is an overlooked classic.
 R6.2 will be the most expensive, prolly; it currently has an ersatz cache
because it's all mechanical.  I recommend them all, including SLs and SL2s,
naturally, but, of those you name -- personally -- I especially like the
R4S.  This question can be fussed over interminably by cognoscenti, and why
not?  You are certainly prudent to ask, but just get one (you really can't
lose if the camera or cameras in question is/are in good shape) and go from
there.

Your lenses are great, as you've discovered.

Good luck, and welcome!

Guy
