I like the MZ-S body a lot, but I've never used one: just held them in the
store. If I'd run across it in 2000 when I was selling off my Nikon kit,
I'd have been into Pentax a lot earlier. :-)
What I'm very curious about is the strange hesitancy of these list member
who've responded regards the MZ-S electronics' durability. In all my
cameras, and other hybrid electro/mechanical gear of the past 40 years,
whenever something has broken down it's been a mechanical component
that's worn out, not the electronics.
All my LX cameras have suffered from electronic problems, and I have a dead
MX sitting around somewhere whose meter doesn't work due to an electronic
malfunction.
