I *think* he meant the Z-5 from the same series as trhe PZ-1p, not the
ZX-5.
I have a zx-5n and a pz-1p. Looking at the specs of the z-5, I'd
probably go for it over the zx-5n. It's better specified in every
category, plus I like the feel of the pz series better. I'd *definitely*
go for it if it'll take the grip and if the shutter release feels like
the pz-1p. I'm not sure how I feel about that silver finish.
Good luck finding one though. I don't ever think I've seen a used one.
