Oh, I agree :-) That's why I, among many other D owners here, waited for the K10D to come along before purchasing a new body. But then I love the two-wheel ergonomics I had on the PZ-1p; although I did get the MZ-S when it came out for the improved auto-focus I never really took to it, and continued to use the PZ-1p a lot of the time. What I like best about the K10D, though, is the additional shooting modes (promoting ISO almost to a par with shutter speed & aperture) - an unexpected bonus from a feature I initially mostly discounted. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
