Alberto, Viewfinders in the PZ-1 and PZ-1p look identical. I cannot notice the 1/2 stop difference in screen brightness. In addition, I've used the brighter screen PZ-1p in the PZ-1 and had difficulties seeing any different results with slides.
Some say that the PZ-1 exposes best for slides while the PZ-1p is best with print film. I think I see that after some use of the PZ-1p... or I was prejudiced to see it. I would guess you should pay 66% to 75% the price of the PZ-1p for the PZ-1. Most all of the features are there, but you will miss the faster 3 fps winding. A discount of 50% would be extraordinary.

I don't know exactly the differences between the two bodies, but mainly I'm interested in the viewfinder. I read somewhere that screens of PZ-1 are different (darker). Is it true ? Is it disturbing ? What could be a reasonable difference in price between the two bodies ? Alberto >> - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
