Sid, The stores you are referring to, respectively, are:
Houston Camera Exchange 5900 Richmond Avenue Houston, TX 77057 (713) 789-6901 Houston Camera Coop 3514 South Shepherd Houston, TX 77098 (713) 522-7837 I have been in both but I am not sure if they carry the MZ-S or *istD. Here is the Austin area, I believe the Camera Co-Op of Austin does carry both the MZ-S and *istD. Regards, Jose R.

I don't remember their names but they are both on Richmond Ave. (I think). Houston is the closest "big" city to me; about 2.5 hours away from here. One of the shops, the bigger one, is not real big on pentax, they are more of a Nikon/ Canon place. The smaller one is more pentax friendly. They aren't too far from each other. I would also put in a good word for the MZ-S. I have it, and feel that although I'll probably get the *istD eventually, I love this camera, and would probably never need more than what it offers. But definitely get the vertical/battery grip with it.
