I am trying to see here if i should get a zx-l for about 240 or spend 160 on repairing a zx-5n. I have other backup cams so can wait for sometime for the zx-l to become available.
Lets see the cons and pros listing (please add to it): Cons of mz-6/zx-l: viewfinder magnification: 0.7x vs 0.8 of 5n. (What does this imply ?) plastic body (isnt 5n mostly plastic too ?) no spot or center-weighted metering. Pros of mz-6: higher sync and max shutter speed. 11 pentax functions (including leaving film leader out on rewind). ir remote operation. add more. cheers, nitin On Mon, Feb 18, 2002 at 05:55:11PM -0800, Alan Chan wrote: > >That's the one thing I remember from the Pentax rep visit last week.
