Thanks for all the replies. As there were quite a few more than I expected, I'll not inundate the list with individual responses. Right now I'm leaning a bit toward the Pz-1 or Pz-1p. (hyper program sounds like lots of fun) However, KEH has a nifty MZ-5 in black and that Z-5. So who knows? Anyway, I'll fill you in when I've bought something.
Thanks again!
