Bob,

the R4sP is a good body if you don't need TTL flash, MLU, shutter priority
or program modes.  Mine have been very reliable; about $500.  The R4s costs
even less, but lacks the viewfinder indication of shutter speeds in manual
mode, and the mode switch can be moved too easily IMHO.  Otherwise it's
also reliable.  If TTL flash is important the R-E is hard to beat.
