Sadly, the PZ-1p wasn't even loved by Pentaxers in general - and certainly not the way LX was. The demise of the LX was honored with a long thread of lavish toasts; the PZ-1p died without such honor. When I heard the news that the PZ-1p was officially out of production, I, however, silently drank some homemade chianti.
Rob --- According to Pentax US, the PZ-1p has not been discontinued, and it is still in production. I too love this camera. I am now a full-time pj at a daily paper. The question came up as to wether I would switch to digital in the near future. As much as I would like to switch to digital, unless they come out with a PZ-1d I doubt that I would right away. I still think that there will eventually be a company that will be able to convert film cameras to digital. At least I really hope so. Nick - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
