I didnt say that, Alin did!
And by the way the F65 he was referrering to is a N***n!
I just dont know why the shutter button doesnt have a thread to allow a
mechnical release to push the button in addition to use of cable switch
F. In the UK this is a damned expensive cable release and many amateur
users would baulk at the idea of spending £30 ($50ish) on a remote
release!

All the Pentax AF bodies released in North America (anyone correct me if
I'm
wrong) have always had provision for the Cable Switch-F! It was never a
consideration to not have that.
...And just think, the new MZ-S will give four (4) possibilities for
remote
release; #1) Standard Elenctronic Cable (update to old faithful Cable
Swith-F), #2) Long version of #1 (briliant, finally!) #3)
Programable
Vario-function Timed Cable release (a must for my nocturnal B&W
landscapes)
#4) some sort of detachable IR remote witht the BG-10 Verticle Battery
Grip!
Now that's versitility! I don't know any N**** that has all of this
available as options. I guess the only thing left is the "remote by
laptop"! Perhaps that will be on these rumoured upcomming models.
