Not that this has to do with what Val is commenting on<g>but i just got back
from Henrys in North Toronto(had to buy a ball head for the company tripod) and i saw
they
had this
for a Pentax line up;
mz-m, mz-7, mz-60 and the *ist.
They are selling it at $699 Canadian. Its small,looks a bit smaller than the mz-60
and cheap looking. :-(
