I agree, but since I have a MZ-3 I'd like the higher max shutter speed and sync speed.

But the controls on the ZX-5n are MUCH more straightforward. They are the same
as the LX controls. And in the same positions.
Not true of the MZ-S.
As to "viability" -- not going to argue with you on that one, because I just
don't know. All I do know is, I'd love to have an LX-tough ZX-5n (also with LX-
quality viewfinder). But of course there is only one of me.
