Woe is me....... What new RF?

[Bill58]

I want/ need another body to go w/ my Model P compatible (preferably TTL/ AE) w/ my LTM Canons, but don't know what to do---buy an RD1; CLE; R2/3A; M2; Z1; or wait for a reasonably priced digital (the M8 appears to be more than I wanna pay).

I stay up late agonizing over this.

Any advice?

I've decided on buying an R2 or R2M and possibly dropping the large amount of money on the 35/1.2 next year. I think that the massively fast 35 on that camera will compliement the 50/1.5 J-3 I have on the Canon P nicely.

Either that or I'm going large format and getting a Crown Graphic with a Kalart rangefinder and a couple of lenses. Dunno. It really IS a hard decision to find another camera that compliments the ones you already have.

I want/ need another body /.../

Do you want or do you need another body?
What will you use it for?
What is your budget?
What do you like about your Canon P?
What don't you like about your Canon P?

Another P body, obviously! Who needs AE?

I'm sort of with Chris. I love AE so I need it 😉 but having two of the same body is great. So I would strongly consider getting another P. You want an M mount cam? You want to be taking those adapter rings on & off your lenses all the time?

Why another body? I love my P, but it takes too long to change lenses walking about. So I thought I would carry two bodies w/ lenses mounted/ ready. Yes--I've thought of another P too, but wanted AE in another body. Maybe I should blow that AE idea off.
