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
