Oh, one more big difference. $100. (Aprox.) >>
The 2 second mirror lock-up is for critical macro or telephoto shots. The
manual mirror lock-up feature on the LX or K2 or ... do make a difference
when shooting 300mm+ lenses on a tripod. The whole camera/lens combination
gets to shaking when the mirror goes up. The 2 second pre-fire is designed
to let the camera stop wiggling before the shutter opens.
That said, I own a PZ-1 and have never been able to justify upgrading to a
PZ-1p. The only feature that I think about is the flash compensation. I
believe the PZ-1p has an easy system to use for daylight fill flash. This is
a feature you missed.
