Hi

I finally preordered my R8 in a known physical store ... I am the first in line.

Thanks

Congratulations on your purchase.

Did they provide any expected delivery times?

Everything seems to be quiet on the R8 front.

I have an RP and it would be a very nice upgrade I think.

The RP also has the efcs only for mechanical shutter but the addition of a usable electronic shutter at up to 40fps would be great but I doubt my Tamron lenses would be able to focus fast enough so I might have to replace it with the rf100-400.

The batteries are compatible (also have 2 M bodies with same batteries), body size is what I'm used to and I have the base plate which I believe is also compatible.

I'll wait till some reviews (not first looks) and actual user experiences are available.

The sensor sounds like it could have better noise handling at higher ISO values than the RP.

Cheers

Paul
