The K2 DMD was available *only* in black, IIRC.

Boz's site agrees with you there. It also lists the K2 as being available with either split-image or microprism focussing screens (non interchangeable BTW) but doesn't say what the DMD has.

The mass and mirror lock-up (very useful with the K2's oversize mirror)
make this my favorite macro camera.

That big mirror is also very good for using long lenses, provided you use the lock-up.

I also use my K2 very often for macro, even though the FA100mm f/2.8 Macro lens is a bit ugly :) I use the Z-1p also for macro but it really does need an electronic DOF preview when the lens is set to "A".

When I go digital I will probably sell my Z-1p, I might sell my LX (it'll be difficult), and I will definitely be keeping my K2.
