Does anyone on this list know anything about the Pentax PZ-5? (Not the ZX-5, but the Euro-version-only PZ-5, which was never sold new in the States.) I'm thinking of getting one, but I do have some questions I'd like to ask first before I do so. I'm mostly concerned about the changable options. (Such as spot metering instead of CWt'ed, rewind film leader out or in, etc...) On the PZ-1(p) these can easily be changed by the camera owner. But specs for the PZ-5 say these options there can only be changed by an authorized factory rep. So what happens if the body I get is not set up with the options I prefer? Who could change it, as Pentax of America says this is not their camera and they won't support it? (They won't even supply me with a manual for it; it's as if for them this camera doesn't exist. Which I find a bit strange...) Any responses here would be greatly appreciated. I did notice on the Pentax owners list that one person there owns a PZ-5. If that person is still around perhaps they could clue me in on this camera. (And, of course, anyone else who's also knowledgable about it...) Remember though, it's not the ZX-5, or the ZX-5n. It's PZ-5. Peace, Skip - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
