Just some brief comments...
Last Saturday thay had a dealers day (or whatever they call it) at my
local photo shop, Keeble and Shutchat in Palo Alto. The Pentax guy
didn't have the MZ-S visible, but showed one to me when I asked.
I was very surprised at how light it is. It didn't really feel too
much heavier than the ZX-5. The AF seems fast, although on first
impression the method of changing the point feels a bit cumbersome.
The camera had a 24-90 on it. It looks like a nice lens, build quality
comparable to the FA28-70 f4.
The rep said that the camera won't be available in the US until July.
Now, the better set up dealer in the shop was Leica, they tested my M6
speeds and meter, didn't laugh at the Jupiter lens hanging from it,
and gave me a $100 rewind knob for free, to replace the one I crushed
when I dropped the thing.
