The MZ-S comes with a data back, but other Pentax models can be bought with 
or without - except for the *ist. The MZ-S is a special case, I believe it's 
the databack that does the exposure data imprinting between the film frames, 
and when they put this in the camera - I believe they thought that "let's do 
it so it can imprint date also, when we're on it anyway"...

I have no databack in my MZ-5n.

EOS 30/33, 300/300V, 3000, Nikon F55, F65, F75, Minolta Dynax 3, 4, 5, 
Pentax MZ-60, MZ-7, MZ-6, MZ-5n, MZ-3 - can all be bought with or without 
data back. And if you have bought the non-date version, but really wants the 
data back - this can often be bought as a separate accessory.

Many dislikes databacks, but obviously some people likes it.

Best wishes,
Rolnad

I had no choice when I picked up my MZ-S, AFAIK there is no other back for
that camera. IMHO, the date backs, recently available from, Pentax are
really useless on camera of this level (PZ1, PZ1P, MZ-S etc.) If you  want
to date stamp a photo buy a good point and shoot. An excellent data back 
was
available for the SF1, it has several modes of date and time imprinting
along with sequential imprinting - A- 00  through something like G -99.
