In other words: "The new camera has a better AF system, but I am not
interested in AF. So the new camera is NOT better than the old one."
That's not logic that I can agree with.
My thoughts on the MZ-S are that FOR ME it is not worth upgrading. The
only significant advantage FOR ME is the data imprinting and pseudo MLU.
If Paal is right with his $1700 price for the MZ-S, I am not willing to
spend that much money for these features. I am disappointed that the MZ-S
will not do flash compensation with my AF500FTZ flash, and will probably
not work with my current remote cord F.
At this point I have a 5n for casual AF shooting and an LX for serious MF
work. If I din't have the 5n, however, I would be hot on the MZ-S.
Cheers,
Boz
