Hi, i have both and they are both great. The R7 has all the convenience but is heavier and a tad larger and it ios also considerably cheaper. The R6.2 on the other hand is lighter and the first manual camera I really like due to the ease of using the shutter speed dial ( I am a big fan of aperture priority). Cant go wrong with either in my opinion...
