Re: [LRflex] digital body for R lensesThanks to everyone for the insights.  It 
looks like I may have to part with $1K, more or less.  I will ponder it.

Julian,

As a follow-up to David's recommendation, you may be interested in Gary 
Todoroff's fine Lympa Log at

It is all about his experiences with an earlier Olympus E-330 and Leica lenses. 
It has fascinated me!

Best wishes,

Bill

  Hello everyone,

  I am seeking recommendations for a reasonably priced digital solution for my 
idle R lenses.  Although I own a high end Nikon digital body, I cannot bring 
myself to sell my R lenses, formerly used on R4, R8, and SL.

  The DMR is out of my league.  Is there a low or mid-priced digital SLR that 
will do justice to these lenses?  And that I can focus manually with not too 
much difficulty.  (A focus confirmation aid would also be nice.)

  New or used. 
   
  I would appreciate some suggestions.

  Thanks in advance...........Julian
