Hi Erik, I'm sorry to hear of all the problems that you had with your gear, especially the full mechanical back-up, sometimes things just aren't supposed to be. I wonder how the MZ-S would handle this type of torture, has anyone put theirs through the ringer yet? I am a bit rough with my gear, I regularly shoot my LX and Leica M cameras in quite heavy rain and both perform flawlessly, also during my recent trip to HK the top of my camera was always wet with sweat due to the high humidity and temperatures.
