The "fuzz" is clearly about using FAJ lenses with the MZ-S, wich doesn't have an aperture control on the bodey, right?
This would give (me) a problem, 'cause I allways shoot flash in manual mode (with TTL flash), because Pentax cameras, IMO have a annoying habit of using too slow shutterspeeds in Programmed Autoflash mode (Of cource it's nice, that backgrounds are well lit - that's obviously the reason for Pentax program choise - but if people etc. are mooving around, the speed, which the program offers, are often to slow, to freeze any motion). So, I set the aperture ring to whatever I find suitable to get a fast enough shutter speed. Working this way I'm in control of how well the background is lit/how much motion is frozen. This gets nice results. This can't be done with a MZ-S using a FAJ lens, now can it?.

I don't own a MZ-S but I can't see what all the fuss is about. Can't you can change the speed/aperture to any desired value by simply turning the thumbwheel? ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Roberts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2004 7:09 PM Subject: Re: A question about the Mz-S... > Mark Cassino <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >At 08:28 AM 2/12/2004 +1000, you wrote: > > > >>Does this mean that all of these new lenses without aperture rings are > >>unusable on the MZ-S? > > > >Useable in program and shutter priority only. > > Also note that "all those new lenses" is only three lenses, one of > which, the DA 16-45, isn't intended for any film camera (though it > supposedly works fine from 20mm up). > > -- > Mark Roberts > Photography and writing > www.robertstech.com >
