Doesn't seem like Aprils joke to me. I mean, someting like BG-10n grip doesn really 
work as a joke!
Anyway, provided the rumor is true, it can (again) be no doubt that Pentax is 
listening. I personally voiced that weather sealing should have been implemented on 
the MZ-S. Several others complained about the plasic back. Now it has been implemented 
on the MZ-S  Limited.
The number of 5000 is very high for such a camera in these digital times. 
I wonder if it is available in chrome as well.
It's a pity we apparently have to buy a Limited lens as well in order to get the 
upgraded body.
