My MZ-50 recently died after 150 rolls. Unless someone knows how to
cure it's urge to wind a frame wheneven I do something with any

They have a higher speced D replacement that was supposed to be
announced after the release of the 645D. That would make it for at
earliest next year. With the announcement of a faster release schedule,
who knows.

This was discussed either last week, or the week before.

Hi Joakim,
I hope your source is correct, I need a new camera very soon (my old Z1p is
slowly dying).
What does slowly dying mean. Just wondering as I own a Z1p myself.

No, Pentax does not like official releases of information, even after the

One thing I wish the MZ-S had is the abilitity to show the aperture in the
viewfinder (and on the film) when in Av mode with an A or M lens. I guess this
would require the aperture to be set from the body with an A lens, but not
possible with an M.
I'd like an IR remote port without the
