I was asking about the position of the hotshoe: on the Zs it is above the right hand, which means you can use both an additional flash and the built-in one at the same time. How do you find that? Any ideas why Pentax stopped doing that? > do fill flash).

Doing the same (or just the -1/2) on the MZ-50 myself. > Hope this helps. Sure does, thanks very much. I was thinking of investigating the Z-series from Boz's site. The Z-1p is more expensive than what I could afford (sth between an MZ-6 and a -5n -- used) > PS: forgot to mention: I have large hands and the Z-1p, being Thanks for that too, I am really small :-) Kostas
