If the np-r1 had been available, I would have gone with it over the MOAR. I like the MOAR but I liked the np-r1 better. I can't fathom why it was discontinued.
Actually prefer the npr2 over the npr1. All the nxs's I have are either npr1s or npr2s except 1 that has a mildot. I got good deal on it and since i dial it wasn't a deal breaker but I prefer the other two.
