I have only fiddled with the MZ-S for a couple of minutes, but the
one I touched had exactly the same problem; the wheel was next to
impossible to spin with one finger. It was pretty obvious it
wasn't intended to be that way.
Faulty or not, it's probaly worth the effort to get it fixed under
guarantee conditions.

insist of helding the Z-1p with your left hand its control layout
is essentially unusable as well. If cradle the lens with your let
hand, any long fingered person would have index fingers right on
the AF selector. I never take my eye from the viewfinder while
selecting AF points.
