I kept my MZ-S when I got the *ist D. The MZ-S hasn't been out of the bag since. And, if you consider the cost of film and processing, about 50-60 rolls of film will recover the difference in cost. Also, with the firmware upgrade, using K and M lenses is really no different than using AV on the MZ-S. Pressing the green button to set the shutter speed takes less than 1/2 second.
