Pål,
The rep commented on one time when he inadvertently left his PZ-1
out on a tripod in the rain. It has continued to work to this day.
The original comment to me was the sealing of the MX-S was like the
LX. The comment about the PZ-1 sealing came later and may well be more
based on experience, but since the first statement mentioned the LX that was
good enough for me.
