[LRflex] Re: R7 vs R6.2

I've owned every Leica R model from the original Leicaflex Mk I to
the R7. When I got the 6.2 it was for all the usual reasons,
mechanical camera, no battery dependence, etc, etc. I soon realised
that it was actually slower in use than the AE bodies because of the
manual exposure settings. I eventually sold it and got another R7. I
now have 3 R7 bodiess.
So, as a former R6.2 owner, I recommend the R7 as a better handling
camera for everyday use. It does everything the 6.2 does and gives
you auto exposure in addition. Finder and build quality are identical
and as far as I remember the only difference between a 6.2 and an R5
is the mechanical shutter.
For the price of a mint 6.2 you could buy two mint R7s and have some
change left over.
As always, the final decision is yours.
