Raimo, Yes, but have you been using bulk rolled film? It doesn't roll in and out of the cannister as smoothly as the manufacturers stuff. I have several ZX's and had 2 PZ-1p's. When winding and rewinding, the PZ-1p tends to pull without any change in motor speed (pitch). The ZX's however, tend to go up and down quite noticeably during rewind on bulk rolled film. Plastic cannisters are even worse than metal ones. So I am saying that the power-torque (not speed) of the PZ-1p is better than the ZX's. My current MZ-S's seem better than the ZX series, but not quite as strong as the PZ-1p.
Hope this clears things up. Bruce Dayton Thursday, January 03, 2002, 2:06:57 PM, you wrote: RK> Whaddya mean - strength? Do you mean power output or durability? How do you measure them?
