In a sense that I don't love the camera, but I like the lenses - so if I want to use r mount lenses - (and don't want to modify lenses to use with either leicaflex sl or fully convert the mount) - I'll need a Leica r camera - so I'll have to live with using an r8/r9 or r6...
 
The R8 looked like an even uglier and much more expensive Canon T90. As if Leica knew they had to get with-it but got lost in an early edition of CorelDraw. Now of course I like the R8 for its gratuitous weirdness and historical irrelevance.

I have two R-Es (as well as R7, R8, R9).
The R-E is excellent and I'll sell u one cheeep if you want. Works with all those R lenses. (It's an R5 w/o the Shutter priority mode) I just don't need two R-Es..
