Taking your intersts into account, I too can recommend buying af PZ-1 or PZ1-p - both brilliant cameras. As you know the PZ1-p is a lot faster, than the PZ1, which, on the other hand has a built-in timer, that the PZ1 doesn't have. An alternative could be the MZ-5n.

I've no interest in getting sucked into digital manipulation of my stuff. (Which I fight with my 4 meg Sony P&S...) I also worry about resolution with digital. (I'm just fighting enablement.) I shoot mostly slides, no post process for me. I do like the slide exposures from the PZ-1 better than the PZ-1p. Used PZ-1's are cheap today. Buy one as a stop-gap measure until you figure it all out. On a side note, I've struggled with reading the pdml in digest and archives. I've got a gmail (free from google) account now thanks to another pdml'er. Works really well compared to trying to read this on AOL. I'm on vacation and haven't been able to check mail every day. The messages just pile up at gmail, no problem, and they are sorted into threads by topic. I'm plowing thru the backlog now and it's easy! Contact me off line if you want an invitation to gmail.
