> 1. A 98% or 100% viewfinder with good "snap" for easy manual focusing

I really wanted #1 (or part of) for the MZ-S, but I was told that to get
100% it was expensive, like doubling the cost.  I can see why Pentax didn't
bother with it given their market.  Too bad.  Not sure what you mean by snap
with manual focus.

Can you explain this further and why it's a problem?

So true.  It no doubt is a very thankless task.  I suppose that is why we
have other companies to choose from.  My worry is everyone is so pumped
about a Pentax DSLR, and it won't be want they expected after all this time,
or not quite good enough, or too good (making it too expensive)

I also wanted one 'cheap' addition, dropping the finder cap and putting in a
switch you can toggle to block the viewfinder.  I didn't get that either.
But, all in all, I'm very happy with my camera and the rest of my gear.
