That is my plan. Mind you I only have five of them, not as many as some
others. They still get their workouts.

I just hope the prices for the Leica R system drops significantly.

This is what I've observed in Columbus.
Also, the Blads are stacking up as well.
Even the RBs and old Mamiya TLRs are dropping nicely (for the buyer).
Besides, there are few 80s Pentax bodies available here.
Students are using them.
Relatively few s/m bodies remain in regular use.

Hi, Vic,
I was walking by your (now) ~least~ favourite camera store (their discount
outlet around the corner on Queen St., downtown), and they've got F4 bodies
going for around $1000 Cdn. They looked minty. That's cheaper than F3's,
for some reason.
The F4 is a Pretty Damned Good body,
