Hi Luggers,
Following on Steve's work here is an interesting article that some might not 
have seen yet.

<http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2426753,00.asp>

R lenses work well but especially some non Leica wides (like the 15mm 
Voigtlander) have colour
fringing problems - more with the 7R than the 7.

Have a read if you are interested. I am going off to the Sony Store in 
Causeway Bay to have a play.

If I were to buy one I would lean to the 7, with two types of focusing 
rather than the 7R which has more pixels than I need
based on my experience with the D800E.

So many camera marques, so little time!!

Cheers

Howard.
