The viewfinder never displays the aperture set on the lens for A lenses.
On 'A' setting, it displays only the aperture calculate by the body for 
correct exposure.

 All,
 
 I was doing some still-life and macro shooting with my MZ-S this morning
 with a couple of big lenses.  I wanted to do some aperture bracketing to
 experiment with different depths of field, and I caught myself wishing that
 my MZ-S had an aperture wheel!

So perhaps hou should consider picking up a PZ-1?  Cheaper that a *ist-D...

Priority and use the shutter dial on the MZ-S, but I have to do exposure
compensation via the exposure compensation dial, which is not easy to do
with your eye at the viewfinder
That *ist D is looking more and more attractive with every passing day.
