The mirror/shutter vibration is significant enough to cause problem with slow shutter speed handheld shots or supertele like 600mm. If that's important to you, you can forget Z-1p.

I'm thinking of moving my photography from the 70s to the 80s (or even
beyond) and embrace this new fangled autofocus thing.

I'm considering buying an autofocus camera to replace an LX.

Reading between the lines on some recent posts, people seem to value their
PZ-1p higher than the MZ-S.

My impressions are that the autofocus on the MZ-S is faster (which I
probably don't need as I don't do many action shots), but the user interface
on the PZ-1p is "better", however you define better.


I can also see some differences between the PZ-1 and PZ1-p specifications.

So the question is fairly simple.

If I can buy an MZ-S for �450, a PZ-1P for �300 and a PZ-1 for �200 which
are typical s/h prices in the UK, what should I go for?

BTW, if I go ahead with this, I'll have an LX and K 50mm f/1:1.2 to dispose
of to fund the acquisition. Let me know if you're interested.
