For goodness sake the camera has been on the market for just a month! Supply is
probably still short. Give it five years and come back to the statistics then.
Pentax have not scheduled high production volumes of the MZ-S. I don't believe any
upper 35mm film slr body from now on will be designed for high volume production.
Sales of high end film slr's is dropping dramatically probably because sales of the
market leaders, the F5, F100 EOS1V, are loosing sales on a large sales to digital.
