You bought, at the time, the nicest Pentax film body made.

That was then, this is now. Now something new comes out, so you no longer
have the nicest. Its called progress. This is the way it works. If you
don't wish to play that sort of game, buy a vintage classic that will only
GAIN in value.

Ergo, if you want to look like you're rich and powerful, and not have to
worry about upgrading to a new "flagship" camera every so often, buy a
classic Leica, otherwise, deal.

I seriously don't fault your attention gathering attitude, everyone does
it (myself included). However, to kick and cry because there's something
better coming down the pipe is just plain childish and stupid.

There will always be something new and better, regardless of brand. Hey,
if nothing else, take solace in the fact that no one knows your MZ-S is no
longer hot sheet because no one even knows what it is.
